6 Fresh Lemon Grass

These lemongrass shoots came well packaged, and shipped quickly. They are perfect for rooting, with a nicely intact node. For those new to growing lemongrass, peel off any outer leaves that have dried a bit in shipping, trim the tops off the leaves (they smell Amazing), then put them in a jar with enough water to cover the base. Put them on a windowsill where it's not too cold, and change the water once a week so they get O2 at the node. It might take over a month for the tiniest roots to appear, but they will. The roots grow long and healthy by spring planting...just be patient and keep changing the water! I have not tried it, but I'd imagine they should root well in a hydro or aquaponic system too.

I followed the guidelines from other reviews to get the stalks to root. I have a nice kitchen window with a full day of indirect sun and no drafts. I placed 5 of the 6 stalks i received there in shallow water after cleaning up any outer fronds that were dry or showing signs of rot. I changed the water daily, and I used water only. No plant food. The stalks rooted within two weeks, and after the roots were about half of my little finger’s length, I planted them gently. I moved the lemongrass to a partially sunny area at first, giving the stalks minimal sun to avoid burn. After about 10 days, I moved then to a sunny spot with about 6 hours of sun. Now they live in an area of all day, full sun in the Texas summer heat. I had used one stalk to flavor a marinade for beef. Flavorful product. I have not cut into my newly grown stalks yet; it’s just too pretty. I want to order and grow many more soon, so I will definitely be buying more.

These arrived very dried out Only the base of the stalks was a little green I'll soak and see what happens, but I dont expect good results.

Doing great. Really reduces misquotes and more so as it grows. Had it before so knew it worked great Plant

I received the stalks of lemongrass. They are very dried out. They don't even have a lemon aroma. I have recut the base and am soaking them in water. They may be too dry to even absorb the water. If there is no improvement within 10 days, I will request a refund and return them.

REVISED July 9, 2020 from 1 star to 4. I was very unhappy with the product I received for the reasons previously stated. I complained to the seller and to seller's credit I was IMMEDIATELY refunded in full. I continued to attempt to root the stalks, which required the removal of a lot of dead and rotting outer leaves. FINALLY today, about 3 of the stalks appear to be showing signs of root growth. The other stalks are still dead. Based on the state of the stalks on arrival and the fact that rooting has been poor, I would have given this product a 2. However, the good customer service and immediate refund in full from the Seller makes me revise this to a 4. The fact that about half of the stalks appear to be rooting has prompted me to write to the Seller, and I have offered to pay for the value I have received. ORIGINAL POST: All stalks arrived dries out, some with bases which had started to rot. Attempting Rooting as instructed, but zero roots emerging as of yet. I am not optimistic. I will revise this review if seller provides viable stalks or if these stalks amazingly return to life.

All the plants ended up growing so fast and it came with great instructions to care for them as well. arrived freshness, great color and size, Very happy!

Arrived on time and in healthy shape. Will buy again this next year.
