Sweet Vernal-Grass (Anthoxanthum odoratum) Plant
These early-flowering, light maroon spikelets are wonderfully versatile, and are popular picks for fields and as potted plants for a variety of reasons: as its name suggests, Sweet Vernal-Grass has a sweet, almost vanilla-like taste to it when chewed, alongside its distinct aroma of cut hay. A valuable food plant for brown and skipper butterflies larvae.
