A quick and easy-to-grow species with slender stems and unusual sword-shaped silvery-green foliage, which becomes tinged with red as fall approaches. If you crush the young or mature foliage, it gives off a refreshing, spicy lemon aroma which deters mosquitoes, making this ideal for growing as a houseplant or as an attractive, beneficial patio feature plant. Germination: 14-90 days, 70-75F. Well-drained soil. Z9-10. 3ft. In container/90ft as a mature tree.
