Thai Lemongrass

Thai lemongrass prefers a full-sun, warm, and sheltered location. It is very heat-tolerant but sensitive to frost.

The soil should be loose, rich in humus, and well-drained. A slightly acidic to neutral pH (approx. 5.5–6.5) is ideal. The plant requires regular watering; waterlogging should be avoided.

The plant grows as a clump-forming grass and usually reaches 1 to 2 meters in height.
It is primarily valued for its lemony aroma as a spice and tea plant.
