LEMONGRASS HARVEST

A fragrant, tall grass with a lemony flavor, used culinarily in Asian dishes and in teas. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, growing as a perennial in warm climates (zones 8-11) and often as an annual in cooler regions like mine. To harvest, cut the stalks close to the base, and for overwintering in cold climates, wrap it, use mulch or bring it indoors. You can also take cuttings to root in water.
