What Does This
Symbol Mean?
(Syn. Elymus arenarius.) Much more tolerant of heat and humidity than the species, this elegant Blue Lyme Grass naturalizes readily, its stiff blue-gray leaves adding exceptional color to any setting. Topped by pale blue to white flowers that mature to beige in autumn, this deer-resistant, very drought-tolerant grass is superb for soil erosion control and difficult-to-plant heavy soils. Excellent for coastal plantings, it is evergreen in warm climates but benefits from a late-winter trim. Zones 3-9.

I just ordered 15 of these for my gardens....lovely grass with bluish tones....heat-resitant, hardy and comes back year after year...great with other perennials like coreopsis and coneflowers. Love this grass!!

If there was ever a grass that could be called blue, this is it! This is the bluest grass I know. There is a downside--it spreads--but when taken into consideration that it has very blue leaves, great drought tolerance, and a reliable return record in its recommended hardiness zones, its tenacious character is a plus. A great grass for containers--especially those of clay and copper color.
