General information about Vernal Grass (Anthoxanthum):Vernal Grass (Anthoxanthum) is a genus of grasses of which a few grow in Western Europe. When dried or crushed the plants smell quite strong of caramel / toffee. Vernal Grass is not too fussy about moisture. Make sure the soil is not too fertile and also not alkaline. Vernal Grass looks good in a natural setting, together with, for example, Scabious (Knautia) and Yarrow (Achillea). If you do not want the plant to self-seed make sure to dead-head in time.Sweet Vernal Grass - Anthoxanthum odoratum
