We can't make sure there will be roots. It will depend on whether the roots come out when we pull out the plant

Leaves are not included so they can fit in the box
Lemongrass has so much value! The leaves are great to make lemongrass tea. The Stalks are great to make dishes.

IF you want to grow them as plants, hopefully these steps helps!

1. Start with fresh lemongrass with the entire stem intact. The stalks you buy don’t need (and probably won’t have) roots at the bottom, but they do need to have the the entire stem (base) intact.

2. Trim any brown, older leaves. In order for the plants to start growing, they need as little as possible. Cut off any green or brown leaves, trim the plant to the stalk so it can focus on growing roots instead of feeding its other body part. To start, cut off the stiff, topmost leaves where they start to split apart. You can simply make a fresh cut (a few inches down) across the top of the stalks.

3. Place the lemongrass stalks in water. Put the stalks in a jar or vase and fill with a few inches of water. Change the water a couple times a week (or when it turns cloudy) and within a week, you should see new leaves begin to grow from the top

4. Continue changing the water until the roots grow nice and long. New roots and leaves usually begin to emerge after about a week. Depending on where you are at, but Lemongrass likes Sunny and Warm places.

Lemongrass is an herbaceous perennial that likes rich, moist soil, ample sunshine, and warmth.
