Description

‘Siskiyou Blue’ is aptly named for the blue hue of its thin, gently arching foliage. This grass forms a clean rounded clump that remains tidy with age. In the late spring, ornate seed heads rise above the foliage with white, open heads that show well against a dark background. ‘Siskiyou Blue’ is not weedy. Provide a well-draining site with at least a half day of sun. This attractive grass, introduced by Berkeley Botanic Garden, is now thought to be a hybrid between the native Festuca idahoensis and non-native Festuca glauca.
