I'm not sure of the term for them but specifically I am looking for flowers that grow as grass. Something about 2-4 inches tall and a very narrow stem. Any help would be appreciated.

White clover fits the bill. The term you're looking for is probably wildflowers or flowering lawn replacements.

"Flowering ground cover" may work as well

I literally just want the flower. The current weather where I am is making all of the grass die so I can't get any locally.

The flower and not the seed?

Can you expand on why you need them?

My suggestion is try dried flowers. They come in smaller varieties but I'd expect expensive shipping since they're very delicate.

A flower shop is your best bet. They don't travel very well.

Creeping thyme is something I'm looking at

Oddly enough, that's what my ex-roomate used to shout out before going out to stalk a girl he liked.

I just want the flower not the plant. Currently where I am is experiencing a drought and can't grow anything

Thats how you have an unfortanate accident with a woodchipper.

No fucking dandelions!

There is something called Japan Meadow (depending on your country it may have a different name: Prato Giapponese in Italian, Gazon japonais in French...) which is a mix of small flowers and grass to replace a classic lawn. It's readily available as seeds here in France, maybe you can find something similar?

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
