Briza media 'Tinkerbell'

A compact ornamental grass noted for its glistening nodding seed heads that rattle and quiver in the wind, giving it its common name 'Quaking Grass'. 

- Its blue-green foliage forms very compact clumps, later turning to a golden brown in the autumn which holds some interest into the winter months. 

- From late spring throughout summer, upright slender spikes bear panicles of small heart-shaped flowers that are purple-green in colour, creating a glittery hazy cloud above the foliage. 

- Will grow basically anywhere in a full sun or lightly shaded position, and can freely self seed to create its own drifts throughout its planting space. A great plant for adding movement, texture and interest to flower beds, cottage gardens, prairie-style planting schemes and wildlife or naturalistic gardens. The glittery flower panicles are great in both fresh and dried cut flower arrangements.

- Can be cut back to 4-6 inches in March/April to allow for lush fresh growth for the upcoming growing season. 

- Height and Spread approx. 40-60cm x 40-60cm. 

- Supplied in a 9cm pot
