Dried Panicum Grass
If you want to add a touch of magic and movement to your home, Panicum (often called 'Frosted Explosion') is the answer. This ornamental grass produces wide, airy sprays of tiny, shimmering seed heads at the tips of fine branches, looking exactly like a firework captured in mid-air.
It creates a misty, ethereal cloud of texture that softens the look of any room. Whether you display a bunch on its own for a minimalist, architectural look, or tuck stems into a mixed bouquet to break up heavy blooms, Panicum adds a professional, airy finish that transforms a good arrangement into a great one.

🌿 What is Panicum?
These stems come from the ornamental grass Panicum elegans. We harvest them just as the seed heads fully expand to create that signature "fountain" shape. They are air-dried naturally to preserve their subtle green-to-gold colour and their intricate, delicate structure.
🎨 Styling Ideas
Panicum is incredibly versatile due to its lightness:
- The Filler: It acts like "Gypsophila" but for dried bouquets. Use it to fill gaps between larger flowers like Hydrangeas or Proteas.
- Wreaths: Because the stems are so fine, they weave easily into wreaths, adding a wispy, wild edge that catches the light.
- Solo Vase: A large bunch in a clear glass vase creates a modern, "cloud-like" sculpture that suits minimalist interiors perfectly.

Perfect Dried Companions
The airy texture of Panicum needs solid, bold partners to create contrast:
- 🔥 Strawflowers (Helichrysum): Solid vs. Airy. The hard, round, colourful heads of Strawflowers look like jewels suspended in the misty cloud of the Panicum grass.
- 🏺 Dried Poppy Heads (Small): Shape Contrast. The smooth, architectural shape of the poppy pods provides a strong focal point against the fuzzy, scattered texture of the grass.
⚠️ Handling Tip
This grass is delicate! When you receive it, give it a very gentle shake outside to fluff it up, then arrange it. Avoid moving it too much once it's in the vase to prevent shedding.
