Description

Cymbopogon is a genus of Asian, African, Australian, and tropical island plants from the Poaceae family.

Citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus and Cymbopogon winterianus) can grow up to about 2 meters and has purplish-colored base stems. From these species, citronella oil is produced, which is used as a repellent (especially against mosquitoes and houseflies), in insect sprays and candles, and in aromatherapy. The main chemical components of citronella, geraniol and citronellol, are antiseptics, and therefore are used in disinfectants and household soaps.

The scent of the essential oil is similar to lemon balm.
