'''Camel grass''' is hardy, bunch-type grass found growing throughout northern [[Idiri]]. It can grow in a variety of semi-arid to arid environments, including dry steppeland, scrubland, savannah, and the margins of deserts. It has slender blades up to a foot in length, somewhat tough when mature, but readily edible to livestock and wildlife in its fresh growth which swiftly follows seasonal rains. As suggested by the name, it provides an important source of fodder for camels in particular. When crushed or warmed by the sun, the leaves give off a pleasant lemony fragrance.

==Uses==

Camel grass is palatable to many different kinds of grazing and browsing animals, though it is chiefly favored when other forage is limited. Its fresh leaves are sometimes eaten or used as a garnish by humans and [[angrosh]] as well, both of whom enjoy the light lemon-like flavor. More importantly, camel grass is widely used in herbal teas and other medicines, helping to fight infection, improve digestion, regulate women's cycles, and improve postpartum outcomes. The grass's essential oils are also extracted to make a bright, fresh, lemony perfume or hair and body oil.
