Lagurus ovatus - Bunny Tails

Soft, sculptural, and irresistibly touchable – the perfect playful accent for gardens and dried arrangements.

Lagurus ovatus, affectionately known as Bunny Tails, is a compact ornamental grass adored for its fluffy, oval seed heads that sway gently on fine, wiry stems. With their soft texture and silvery-beige colouring, these whimsical tufts bring a gentle, tactile element to both garden beds and indoor spaces.

Perfectly suited to flower borders, children’s gardens, and mixed containers, Bunny Tails add light movement and contrast among annuals, perennials, and even formal plantings. They’re also ideal for cutting and drying, retaining their shape and soft colour for months in floral displays, wreaths, or bud vases.

Whether you’re planting with a naturalistic look in mind, or seeking something simple and sculptural, Bunny Tails deliver charm in spades — and children love them just as much as adults do.
