Its fresh, citrus-forward scent makes it a favorite for herb gardens, container plantings, and sunny borders, where it adds fine texture and a warm, grassy presence.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe stalks are widely used in cooking, particularly in Southeast Asian soups, curries, and teas, while the foliage lends fragrance to garden beds and patios.
