Lemongrass is a perennial aromatic grass that originally grew wild in India, known locally as choomana poolu. Also referred to as Indian Verbena or Indian Melissa oil, it has been embraced in Ayurveda, the ancient art of healing, to help reduce fevers and treat infectious illnesses; hence, it is often called ‘fevergrass’.
