The finest selection of blue fescue to date. Extremely narrow leaves of intense silver-blue form neat clumps. Flower panicles of the same color rise above the foliage in early summer and turn light tan as they mature. Cool-season grass. Tolerates drought but struggles in heat and humidity.

Intensely blue and more tolerant of heat ; humidity (which its parent despises) this 15" tufted clumper makes a colorful accent in rock garden or border; upright, tough and a heavy flower producer. S/M-D/GDr
