Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is a staple ingredient in Southeast Asian cooking and a wonderfully versatile herb to have on hand. Those thick, fragrant stalks deliver a bright, citrusy flavor that's essential in Thai curries, Vietnamese soups, and countless other dishes—and fresh lemongrass is genuinely superior to anything you'll find dried or jarred at the grocery store. It's also a striking garden plant, with tall, arching grassy foliage that adds a lush, tropical feel to beds and containers alike.

SHIPPING INFO: Herbs primarily ship in May.

 

Why Grow Lemongrass?

🍋 Bright Citrus Flavor: Fresh lemongrass stalks bring a clean, lemony depth to curries, soups, teas, and marinades that dried or jarred versions simply can't match.

🌿 Natural Mosquito Repellent: Lemongrass oil (from its natural citronella content) is a well-known deterrent to mosquitoes, making it a practical herb to grow near seating areas.

🌱 Bold and Low-Maintenance: Once established, lemongrass is a vigorous, heat-loving plant that requires minimal fuss and rewards you with an abundant harvest.

 

Growing Information

🌱 Plant Type: Tender perennial herb (grown as an annual or container plant in cooler climates)

🌱 Plant Height: 3–5 feet

🌱 Hardiness Zones: 9–11 (grown as an annual or overwintered indoors in Zones 4–8)

🌱 When to Plant: Spring, after last frost and once temperatures are consistently warm

🌱 When to Harvest: Once stalks are at least half an inch thick at the base, typically mid to late summer

 

Cultivation Tips

  • Soil: Fertile, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0. Lemongrass appreciates a little compost worked in at planting time. Avoid heavy, waterlogged soil.
  • Sunlight: Full sun—at least 6–8 hours daily. Lemongrass loves heat and will sulk in too much shade.
  • Watering: Keep soil evenly moist during establishment, then water weekly, more frequently during extreme heat. Mulching around the base helps retain moisture and keep roots happy.
  • Harvesting: Twist or cut outer stalks at the base when they're at least half an inch thick. Always leave the inner core of the plant intact so it continues to produce. The lower, pale portion of the stalk is what's used in cooking; the upper grassy leaves can be used for teas and infusions.
  • Container growing: Lemongrass does very well in large containers (12–16 inch pots minimum). This is the preferred approach in cooler climates so you can bring the pot indoors before first frost and overwinter in a sunny spot, then move back outside the following spring.
  • In cooler zones: If treating as an annual, plant after all frost danger has passed and give it as long a season as possible. It grows fast in warm weather and can still produce a worthwhile harvest even in a single season.

Our lemongrass is greenhouse-grown and arrives as an established plug in a 3" pot, ready to go straight into your garden or container.

Non-GMO Commitment: At The Farm on Central, all our plants are guaranteed non-GMO and not genetically modified in any way, upholding natural breeding methods and promoting sustainable gardening and farming practices.

Love the smell and great for my skin
This has become a permanent part of my shower routine. I use it right after I turn the water off while I am still wet, I cover my entire body from the neck down using about 8-10 pumps. I will wrap my body in a towel and finish getting ready (brush teeth, face moisturizer and blow drying hair) and then I will gently rub the towel everywhere incase there is any excess oil after it had the time to absorb into my skin. I dont think it leaves any greasiness at all, its really lightweight. What I love most of all is the smell though. A very nice, light, sweet vanilla smell lingers on your skin until your next shower. You have to put your nose pretty close to your skin to smell it so you wont be bothering anyone who had scent sensitivities. I have been using this for almost a year now and I still keep bringing my forearm to my nose to smell my skin because I love it so much. My skin has improved so much since I started using this.

A GREAT OIL FOR YOUR SKIN
I JUST REVIEWED THE LOTION WHICH I LOVED AND I ALSO LOVE THIS OIL. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A LITTLE BIT PRICEY BECAUSE THE BOTTLE IS A BIT SMALL HOWEVER YOU REALLY ONLY NEED A SMALL AMOUNT AS A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY. IT ABSORBS INTO YOUR SKIN NICELY WITHOUT FEEL OVERLY GREASY AND IT LEAVES YOUR SKIN SOFT AND SMELLING VERY NICE. THE SMELL IS LOVELY BUT IT ISN'T A REAL STRONG SMELL AND THE VANILLA ISN'T OVERLY SWEET EITHER. IT IS THE PERFECT VANILLA. IT LEAVES YOUR SKIN REFRESHED AND I LOVE IT !! IT GOES GREAT WITH THE LOTION.

Worth it
Okay first night using and I’m in love. Smells amazing. I’m particular about my vanillas but this is light but strong. Doesn’t disappear right away sits on the skin nice and drifts on the air as a nice aroma. Dries down wonderfully too. I did have to use a few pumps to cover each part of my body but so worth it. It’s not greasy at all and gives a nice glow. Application was easy and I do feel moisturized. Looking for the lotion version now to layer over top it.

Very good product. TRY IT!
I LOVE this body oil. I’d been using Elemis Muscleease, which I still prefer, but I was paying $40-$45 dollars a bottle from EBay. Sadly, the makers of Elemis changed the formula & I was having to use more of it to get the same results. Plus, the WONDERFUL scent, that I always found so relaxing but not overpowering, was different. When I saw a review for this cocoa butter body oil, I decided to try it. I’m so glad I did. It works well for my extremely dry skin, has a very nice scent, soaks in quickly, & costs less than half from what I was paying for Elemis. Plus, it contains 6.5 ounces instead of 3.3 of Elemis, though I do use a bit more of it. I’m very glad I found it. In truth, I still would prefer the Elemis, the old formula, but this works quite well & saves me money. As a retired woman living on much less income, the price is a big consideration for me. And, the formula change by Elemis, made it less effective. I would absolutely recommend trying this product if you have issues with dry skin. I recommend using it as soon as you get out of the shower to trap the water on your skin for best results.

Very moisturizing with a great vanilla scent
I love this body oil. Very hydrating and smells amazing. It has replaced the original Palmer’s cocoa butter, body oil for me just because I like the smell better. It leaves my skin looking glowy and feels so smooth. I smell like vanilla all day. I like the pump top. It is easier to apply. Very silky consistency
