Description
6-12" tall x 6-8" wide. The showy blooms of Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium angustifolium) grace gardens from May to June on the heels of spring bulbs. Despite the common name blue-eyed grass, Sisyrinchium is a relative of iris and the fine blue-green foliage is quite reminiscent of the flattened, sword-like blades of an iris, only much finer. The fast-growing foliage adds soft texture along the edges of cottage gardens and perennial borders. Excellent for stabilizing slopes and naturalizing into lawns or meadows where the foliage disappears among the grasses. Tolerant of a diversity of soil types, plants grow well in any moist, well drained soils and adapt well to rain gardens and bog plantings. Lucerne is moderately drought tolerant once established. Plants may rebloom in late summer under favorable conditions. Commonly a short-lived perennial, divide every 2-3 years to increase vigor. Avoid thick layers of mulch which can cause crown rot.

As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds.
