Phleum Vaginatum

Timothy grass, scientifically known as Phleum vaginatum, is a cool-season grass native to Europe and parts of Asia. It is commonly found in meadows, pastures, and disturbed soils due to its adaptability to various environmental conditions. This plant is valued for its nutritional content, making it a key component in livestock feed. Its dense growth habit also helps prevent soil erosion and supports biodiversity. Despite its widespread use, Timothy grass remains relatively underappreciated in modern agricultural practices.
