Hare's tail grass (Lagurus ovatus) is a hardy annual often grown in
mixed borders for its decorative flowers - delightful 11/2 in (3 cm)
long, fluffy white heads resembling the tail of a hare or rabbit. These
appear from early summer to early fall carried on slender stems that are
1 ft (30 cm) high. The long, narrow, hairy gray-green leaves present a
pleasant contrast to the soft, furry flower heads. To dry the grass for
winter decoration, gather in dry weather in late summer.
