5mm Yellow Straw Static Grass

5mm yellow straw static grass for harvested wheat fields, late summer terrain, and arid scenes on dioramas, model railway layouts, and wargame bases — the distinctive pale yellow color of dried grain stalks after harvest.

This is the right color for representing fields that have been cut: short golden stubble left after the harvester has passed through, or natural unmaintained grass that has fully dried out in late summer heat. The 5mm length suggests slightly longer stalks than freshly mown stubble — closer to grass that has dried while still standing.

Quick scale guide:

• HO / OO (1:87, 1:76): harvested wheat fields, dried grass meadows
• N (1:160): wider field scenery, harvested farmland
• 1/35, 1/48 dioramas: dried ground cover, late summer scenic detail

Works great for:

• Late summer and autumn dioramas — after the harvest period
• Mediterranean and southern European countryside scenes
• WWII Eastern Front and Italy dioramas — wheat field combat scenery
• Wargame terrain — agricultural and rural boards
• Western and prairie-themed model railway layouts

Key features:

• 5mm fiber length — taller than standard HO ground cover
• Yellow straw color — pale, dried grain tones
• Apply by hand or with a static grass applicator for upright fibers
• Attach with PVA glue (white glue)

Tip: For full drought or harvested-field scenes, combine with our 3mm withered dry static grass for shorter dried stubble underneath — the height variation reads as natural broken stubble after harvest, not a uniform carpet.
