Briza Maxima Seeds (Quaking Grass)

You can understand why Briza Maxima is also known as Quaking Grass by looking at it.

Add captivating movement and texture to your garden and arrangements with Quaking Grass (Briza maxima). This delightful annual grass is adored for its charming, nodding seed heads that resemble tiny lockets or rattles, shimmering and dancing in the slightest breeze. It's incredibly easy to grow and brings a light, airy feel to cottage garden borders.

A lovely grass that grows upright and has spikelets in the shape of hearts that droop and move gently in the breeze. When the light green of the spikes dries to a golden straw colour, it looks beautiful added to an arrangement of flowers, bringing an air of rural cottage and meadow to any vase.

An absolute essential for our Cutting Garden Seeds collection and fantastic for drying – see our Dried Flowers collection for inspiration!
