Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in its native tropical environments. Its long, narrow leaves minimize water loss through transpiration, while its clumping growth form helps it resist wind and provides shade to its base. Additionally, lemongrass has a robust root system that allows it to access moisture and nutrients, making it resilient to variable soil conditions. These adaptations enable it to flourish in warm, humid climates and survive periods of drought.
