Hair Grass

From LoveToKnow Garden

Hair Grass (Aira) - Graceful grasses, of which one of the prettiest is A. pulchella, with hair-like stems, growing in light tufts 6 inches high. It is useful for edgings, amongst plants in borders, or for pots for rooms. Its panicles give a charm to the finest bouquets. A. c. vivipara, with its panicles of graceful viviparous awns, resembles a miniature Pampas Grass. A. flexuosa (the Waved Hair Grass) is a graceful perennial. Of easy culture in ordinary garden soil. Seed.
