It is used for flavoring soups, curries, and teas. Lemongrass oil is used to flavor ice cream, candy, pastries, desserts, and chewing gum. It is also used to treat digestive problems and fever. It is an important ingredient in cosmetics and perfumes. It is also a good insect repellent. Easy to grow. Excellent choice for home gardens. A variety from India.

Note: Lemongrass seeds have a naturally low germination rate due to imperfect pollination. The outer husk must be removed prior to planting seeds.
