Grassy Grove

Lemongrass is a tall, citrus-scented grass native to tropical regions, prized for its invigorating aroma and traditional uses in medicine and cuisine.

Its essential oil, steam-distilled from the leaves, is known for its bright, lemony fragrance and powerful antibacterial, antifungal, insect-repellent, and mood-lifting properties.

Tropical Grass

Lemongrass is cultivated in warm, tropical climates where it flourishes in well-drained soil and full sun, often grown in clusters that can be harvested multiple times a year.

Farmers typically propagate it from stalk cuttings, as the hardy grass quickly takes root and grows into dense, fragrant thickets.

Ancient cultures also prized it for its refreshing scent, using it in sacred rituals, healing balms, and early forms of aromatherapy.

Lemongrass is believed to cleanse spaces of negative energy, with its bright, citrusy essence used in spiritual rituals to purify the aura and invite clarity.
