LESSER QUAKING GRASS

Lesser Quaking Grass (Briza minor) is a delicate ornamental annual grass known for its fine, airy foliage and distinctive nodding seed heads that tremble in the slightest breeze. It forms light, tufted clumps of slender green leaves topped with small heart-shaped spikelets that turn golden as they mature. Ideal for adding movement and texture to borders, wildflower meadows, and dried arrangements, it performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. This graceful grass self-seeds lightly in suitable conditions and is valued for its elegant appearance and shimmering, “quaking” motion in the garden.
