Arabic term or phrase: احمر من بهمي
I need help for a few ingredients composing an incense (buhur). This particular ingredient is "red" from something?
Not sure is it a plant or mineral.

English translation:Red ryegrass
Explanation:
This is the dictionary entry I found in (which I have in my home library) معجم الشهابي في مصطلحات العلوم الزراعية: rye-grass أحمر من بُهْمَي - زُوان مُعَمَّر. Although, the hyphenation of ryegrass is unusual in English. Hope that helps.
