Festuca glauca – Blue Fescue is a compact, finely textured ornamental grass admired for its icy blue, needle-like foliage. This evergreen perennial forms neat, rounded clumps that bring bold color and texture to any garden setting.
Perfect for edging, rock gardens, or container planting, Blue Fescue stays attractive all year and pairs beautifully with flowering perennials and warm-toned foliage. In late spring to early summer, it produces soft, wheat-like flower spikes that gently sway in the breeze, adding movement to your landscape.
