The Phalaris Canariensis, better known as Canary Grass, comes as the name implies from the Canary Islands, but is now grown all over the world. Canada is currently the largest producer of Phalaris Canariensis, but our Canary Grasses are sown, grown, harvested and dried in the Netherlands. Phalaris is also grown as a food crop and bird seed, as well as fantastic dried grass.
Dried Phalaris can be added to any flower arrangement or dried bouquet and certainly looks good when you combine it with other dried grasses or colourful dried flowers. Just a few stems in your bouquet and the feeling is natural and stylish. Phalaris grasses also colour very well (they absorb the paint nicely and evenly) and we can supply in a wide range of extravagant colours such as fresh dark blue and intense orange. For a softer look, we like to work with "misty" pastel shades.
