Dog grass is a prolific, fast spreading plant original to Eurasia but now inhabits nearly every corner of the world as a wayside weed and foraging crop. The herb may be the bane of many gardeners, but it has a place in the home and shop apothecary as an ingredient in herbal tea blends and bath and body products.
