Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) grows abundantly in my subtropical permaculture garden, a productive polyculture. It is such a useful multi-functional perennial.
When it's time to propagate lemongrass soon, I will make another film showing how to divide a clump and create a living swale using it.
Before I had terraces in my vegetable garden, I used lemongrass as an edge to hold mulch and compost on the slope. It was a very effective and quick way to start a vegetable garden without a lot of cost and infrastructure.
Watch my latest YouTube clip about the many ways I use lemongrass in my permaculture garden.
