If you're looking for a grass that literally takes the cake, look no further than Leersia oryzoides (Rice Cut Grass). We grow this grass naturally around our shop, so when you order it's as fresh as possible. Standing 2 1/2-5 ft tall, Rice Cut Grass is an attractive perennial with sharp-edged leaves and asymmetrically-shaped inflorescence. Plus, its slightly drooping branches make it look even more eye-catching! But be warned: While it looks great, getting caught in a patch of Rice Cut Grass with bare legs is an unpleasant experience - this stuff has some serious prickles sure to leave your skin itching. So don't forget to wear your gardening gloves when tending to and appreciating this unique and delightful plant!

Shipping Information:
We don't want you to have any worries about your plant when it ships! We are a fresh to order nursery so we have no stock on the shelf. This is to allow us to provide you with the healthiest plants we possibly can! We collect and send out plants Monday and Tuesday so they won’t get stuck in the mail over the weekend. We label each species of plants individually with their scientific and common name. We fill the excess space in the package with air pillows and packing paper to prevent the plants from receiving damage during shipping.
Carbon Emission Statement:
We carbon-offset by using recycled boxes and packing material from our local area whenever we can, and as much as we can! As a Fresh-To-Order Nursery it's part of the job to try helping ensure that Earth lasts for generations ahead. While providing beautiful plants in these areas also requires taking care of the plants that grow there. Harvesting only occurs on acres pure untouched marsh or wetlands which provide habitats for wildlife, both now and hopefully for many years to come! It is our mission to preserve these areas.
