Anthoxanthum odoratum – Sweet Vernal Grass
One of the most delightfully fragrant ornamental grasses, Anthoxanthum odoratum is beloved for its vanilla-scented blades — a sweet, hay-like fragrance released when the leaves are dried or crushed. A slender, upright perennial grass native to Europe and Asia, it produces airy white blooms in spring and early summer, making it a charming addition to meadow gardens, borders, and dried flower arrangements. Deer resistant and easy to grow in sun to part shade.
