Agrostis nebulosa
Cloud grass (Agrostis nebulosa) is a small annual grass from Iberia and Morocco, grown for its airy, cloud-like seed heads that are dried for floral arrangements. It is easy to grow from seed in sunny, well-drained spots.
Agrostis nebulosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Poaceae. It is referred to by the common name cloud grass, and is an ornamental plant native to Morocco, Portugal and Spain. This plant is often cultivated for its light delicate heads that are used dried in floristry.
A. nebulosa has been once collected as a naturalised plant in New Zealand, wild on the grounds of Massey University, Palmerston North, in 1961.
