About This Variety
Meet This Variety
Blue Fescue is a compact ornamental grass grown for its fine, cool-toned foliage and tidy clumping form. It fits naturally into borders, containers, and naturalized plantings where its texture can contrast with broader-leaved plants.
Choose a sunny, well-drained setting and give young plants time to establish before expecting their mature shape. It is better suited to decorative landscape planting than to a hard-wearing lawn, so place it where its foliage and form can be appreciated as an accent.
