Last time we were at the filipino grocery store, my mom bought bought some Star Anise seeds. That got me wondering if they will grow, so I got four seeds and placed it on a a wet paper towel to see if they will sprout. If they do, I can try to grow some in the spring.

Will these four seeds sprout?
About a week and a half ago, I bought some Lemon Grass from Seafood City (a Filipino grocery store) and soaked it in water to see if it’ll root.
Well, it did!!!… and I noticed that a side shoot was starting to sprout, so I planted it in a pot with soil and hopefully it’ll start growing more shoots. I never grew or seen a Lemon Grass plant, so I don’t know if I should cut the original stalk back.
