After years of sticking toothpicks in avocado pits and getting nothing but stinky water and a rotted seed, I buried 2 outside next to the banana. Both are rooted and 1 is sending up a stem! Not that I can grow them in my zone...

I was hoping to get lemon grass starts when in Cocoa but only came home with some stalks. Mr. Cocoa checked out how to propagate them and stuck some in water there so I followed suit with the 2 I had. They have roots! (I actually started them from seeds in MD but the stupid neighbor's cat ate the plants. Note to self: no felines in my future!)

Do you know what species of Cymbopogon (lemongrass) you have?

Haven't a clue. (Mr. Cocoa doesn't keep tags but he purchased it at a "real nursery" so maybe we could find out.) I do know that it is very clumpy thus doesn't make the big sticks I used to purchase at the Asian markets up north. Its skinniness could just be how it was grown; it's a large 2.5 year old clump never harvested. Supposedly you can root any lemon grass if you have the bottom bits of the stem; the ones I had were just whacked off so I expected nothing. I do know you can that the roots of fennel and leeks can be encouraged to go again.

Too lazy to post a picture plus the roots aren't terribly dramatic but I have 8 lemongrass sticks nearly ready to plant! All those years I wasted starting seeds (and sometimes succeeding then the neighbor's stupid cat ate all the foliage so I got nothing) when all I had to do was go to my Asian market and buy some! Sheesh!
