Desert Grasses

Desert Grasses

Drought-tough grasses for hot, dry landscapes.

The Desert Grasses collection features ornamental grasses selected for exceptional drought tolerance, heat resilience, and clean architectural form. These grasses thrive in dry conditions while delivering movement, texture, and year-round structure. Well suited to California climates, especially inland and low-rainfall areas, they are a natural fit for sustainable and water-wise landscape design.

This collection supports modern, Mediterranean, and desert-inspired gardens where beauty and efficiency go hand in hand.
