This very hardy, cool season, semi-evergreen, perennial grass has wide, rough-textured, silvery-blue leaves dusted with silver on their undersides; subtle, wheat-like, silver-blue flowers are borne on long stems in summer; enthusiastic spreader; good cut flower; deer resistant, drought and heat tolerant once established.
This enthusiastic spreader is ideal as a ground cover, for erosion control, in seaside & water-wise gardens, planters and containers
The richer the soil, the more this grass spreads. Plant in drainage tile or containers to control spread; cut back to promote new growth; very low maintenance
