    Lemon Grass (Cymbopogon citratus) takes on dual duty as a bright green ornamental grass that you can eat! Quickly becoming one of the most popular grasses for the landscape, Cymbopogon ciratus, can grow up to 5' when planted in a sunny spot. Use Lemon Grass (sometimes spelled as one word: Lemongrass) next to the patio or deck where its citrusy scent naturally repels pesky mosquitoes. Harvest it and add to teas or season meals, and serve to your friends who won't believe they're eating your beautiful garden!

    Shipping Methods

    Orders will be shipped via FedEx Home Delivery.

    Orders are generally in route for 2-5 business days (depending on where you live).

    We are sticklers about packaging and shipping your order in a way that guarantees healthy plants upon arrival. If plants are damaged on arrival, just let us know and we'll send you new ones or offer a full refund.

    All of our plants are container grown and shipped with the soil and roots fully intact. We DO NOT ship your plants bare-root. Being shipped as a containered plant greatly reduces the risk of the plant not surviving the transit to your home.

    It was dead on arrival😂

    Hi Christopher. The lemon grass was dormant upon arrival. This is 100% it's normal appearance for this time of year. :) This is the best time to plant them and they tend to put on their spring growth in late April. We tag the dormant plants and have this information listed on our site as well so it isn't a surprise or mistake as being dead.
    If there is ever a question or concern please reach out to hello@thegreenhousepnw.com and we are happy to help!

    Grasses arrived in great condition

    I planted 2 in the ground and one in a pot on the patio. All are thriving. Will definitely order more plants when our backyard is ready.
