Wholesale Dog Grass
Triticum Repens L.
plant overview
Dog grass, commonly known as couch grass, is a perennial, creeping plant that many gardeners recognize as an aggressive and invasive weed. It spreads through an extensive underground rhizome system, making it particularly resilient and difficult to eradicate.
The plant is also well known for its association with animals. Domestic cats and dogs are often observed seeking out this grass, a behavior that has contributed to its common name.
Historically, dog grass has been documented in European herbal traditions, where the plant—particularly its roots—was collected and prepared for traditional uses. These practices appear frequently in older herbals and folk records, reflecting the long-standing cultural interest in the plant.
Today, dog grass is studied primarily for its botanical characteristics and chemical composition, including naturally occurring plant compounds found in its roots. While often overlooked due to its reputation as a weed, couch grass has played a notable role in traditional plant lore and ethnobotanical history.
