Description
Lemongrass Seeds - Tropical Asian Cooking Perennial Plant Outdoor Indoor Home
Quantity 250 Seeds
Lemongrass is a tropical herbaceous plant from the grass family (Poaceae) native to the warm climates of Asia, Africa, and Australia. Its scientific name is Cymbopogon, and there are many species in this genus, the most common being Cymbopogon citratus and Cymbopogon flexuosus.
Lemongrass is known for its distinctive lemony scent, which is due to the presence of citral, a key component of its essential oil. This plant grows in tufts with long, sharp-edged, and pointed leaves that can grow to be up to 1 meter (about 3 feet) long.
Lemongrass is widely used in cooking, particularly in Thai, Vietnamese, and other Southeast Asian cuisines. It imparts a unique citrus flavor to dishes, including soups, curries, and teas. The lower section of the lemongrass stalk, which is more bulbous, is typically the part used in cooking, as it is the most flavorful.
Moreover, lemongrass is used as an insect repellent, and it is also planted in gardens and landscapes for its ornamental value due to its tall, grassy appearance and aromatic qualities.
