Ready to plant

Stipa tenuissima, also known as fairy flax or angel hair, is a sophisticated and elegant grass. It grows in soft, hair-like tufts, initially green and then increasingly straw-colored as the weeks pass. Their color will glow golden under the sun's rays, while the tufts will sway in the breeze and bow in the morning under the weight of the dew. Stipa is the perfect plant for highly dramatic displays, especially in windy areas.

In summer, from June to September, it develops light straw-colored spikes that glow gold in the sun and sway in the breeze.

Grow in full sun. Very hardy, it withstands cold down to -10/-15 °C, tolerates salt spray and has high drought tolerance, ideal for windy and arid areas.

Shipping

  • Italy: delivery within 48/72 hours of shipping.
  • International: delivery within a maximum of 5 days.
  • We ship from Monday to Wednesday: so that the plants only travel on weekdays and do not sit in the courier's warehouses over the weekend. Orders received from Thursday to Sunday will be shipped the following Monday.
  • Packaging designed for live plants, to ensure they arrive in good condition.

When you receive the delivery or hold-for-collection notice, please collect the package as soon as possible: plants suffer if they remain closed in the box for too long.

Returns and damaged plants

  • Right of withdrawal within 14 days of receipt, as provided for by the Consumer Code. The product must be returned intact and in its original packaging; return shipping costs are borne by the customer.
  • Plant arrived damaged? Please let us know within 7 days of receipt, with a few photos of the plant and the packaging: we will assess a replacement or refund together.

All the details are in the Terms of Sale and the withdrawal form. If you have any questions, write to us.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.

Non si può piantare troppo stipa. Quando viene ben grande mi fa pensare di Anita Egbertt di Fellini.

Store owner replied: Grazie John per la sua recensione! La Stipa, con i suoi ciuffi morbidi e il movimento leggero al vento, sa davvero prendersi la scena! Un caro saluto
