Give your cat greenery with our Cat Grass Hordeum vulgare Plants. These are living plants rather than seeds, ready to enjoy. Each plant arrives in a 12cm pot and is available in sets of two or four.

Also known as barley grass, Hordeum vulgare produces bright green blades that cats can sniff, explore and nibble. Kept indoors, it offers them their own dedicated plant and may help draw attention away from other houseplants. Place it somewhere for your cat to reach.

Position your indoor cat grass in bright, indirect light. Water when the compost surface begins to dry, keeping it lightly moist without soaking the roots, as excess water can encourage mould.

  • Please note: the decorative pot shown in the images is for illustration purposes only and is not included with the plant.

Watering Water when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Do not leave the plant sitting in standing water, as consistently wet roots can lead to rot. Growth slows in winter, so reduce watering frequency during cooler, darker months.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright, indirect light, ideally at around 18-26°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use a good-quality, well-drained houseplant compost and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. Most houseplants perform best with moderate humidity and should be kept away from strong radiator heat.

Top tip

Turn the pot a quarter turn every week or two so the plant develops evenly, and wipe broad leaves occasionally to keep them free of dust. Good drainage is especially important, so avoid leaving the roots sitting in persistently wet or compacted soil.
