10 Reasons To Grow Lemongrass No Matter Where You Live

 Via Huong-Can Thi Nguyen

 

Lemongrass is a key ingredient in plenty of Asian cuisines and as you will discover as you read on, it is also useful in a wide range of other ways.

But if you do not live in a tropical or subtropical climate zone, you might be forgiven for imagining that this is not a plant that you can grow where you live.

You might be surprised to learn that you can grow it in your garden, and can even grow it in a cool temperate climate as long as you bring it indoors or undercover during the winter months. 

The key to success, if you live anywhere colder than zone 9a, is to grow it in containers.
