Cymbopogon Ambiguus (Australian Lemon Grass)

Cymbopogon Ambiguus (Australian Lemon Grass) is a hardy Australian native ornamental grass valued for its graceful arching foliage and refreshing lemon-scented leaves. Forming dense clumps of fine blue-green foliage, it adds movement, texture and year-round interest to native gardens, rockeries and water-wise landscapes. The aromatic leaves have traditionally been used by Indigenous Australians to prepare herbal infusions, adding cultural significance to this versatile native.

Thriving in warm, temperate and semi-arid Australian climates, Cymbopogon Ambiguus (Australian Lemon Grass) performs best in full sun and well-drained soils. Once established, it is drought tolerant and requires minimal maintenance, making it an excellent choice for low-water gardens. Its elegant habit, resilience and pleasant fragrance make it a valuable addition to a wide range of landscape styles.
