Flat Pot Ø 50 cm

Ideal for hedges, borders and green roofs

Stipa tenuissima, also known as Mexican feather grass 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 go by. 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 scenic arrangements, especially in windy areas.

  • Habit and height: compact grass with soft tufts, swaying in the wind.
  • Foliage: thin, thread-like bright green leaves, turning golden in autumn.
  • Flowering: from May to September, feathery cream-colored inflorescences.
  • Hardiness: very resistant to drought, heat and wind.
  • Ideal for: mixed borders, Mediterranean gardens and windy areas.
  • Soil: well-drained, even poor soil.
  • Exposure: full sun; tolerates partial shade.
  • Watering: regular during the first few months, then very little water.
  • Pruning: at the end of winter, remove dried flower heads or shorten the clumps.

From May to September it produces light, feathery cream-colored inflorescences that sway in the wind, adding movement and an ethereal look to the garden.

Hardy grass that loves full sun but tolerates partial shade, in poor and well-drained soils. Very resistant to drought and heat, it is not bothered by the wind. Minimal maintenance: remove dried flower heads or cut back the clumps at the end of winter.

For a contrasting effect, pair it with vibrant blooms such as Gaura lindheimeri or Perovskia atriplicifolia, or with plants with silvery foliage such as Helichrysum italicum.

FLAT POT SIZE Ø 50 CM

Instant effect: a finished garden from day one

Flatpots are well-established plants, grown in our nursery in a shallow, wide pot measuring Ø 50 cm. They arrive with a full crown and a wide root ball, with roots that spread outwards instead of circling.

The result is an instant impact: as soon as they are planted, hedges, borders and flowerbeds already have the appearance of a mature garden. You don't have to wait years for the plants to grow and, thanks to the wide and shallow root ball, they establish quickly: they are also ideal for green roofs and shallow soils.

They are the right choice for designers, landscapers and companies that need to deliver a finished project, and for anyone who wants to transform their garden in a single season.
