The botanical name is \u003cem\u003eCymbopogon flexuosus\u003c\/em\u003e.

Because the plant is not frost hardy, many growers prefer lemon grass seeds for pots so containers can be moved to a sheltered spot when temperatures drop. For best keeping conditions, avoid storage or overwintering temperatures below 10 °C. If you are planning indoor sowing lemon grass seeds, an indoor sowing seed tray can be a practical option for starting plants in a controlled environment before moving them to containers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shaphira","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743609946449,"sku":"SHA-GRO-031116-6","price":3.96,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0860\/2458\/5553\/files\/SHA-GRO-031116-6_1_d8452de3-560a-4ad9-8a32-67b1e703b648.png?v=1778191310"}],"url":"https:\/\/seedschoice.de\/collections\/lemongrass.oembed","provider":"SeedsChoice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
