Blue Fescue 'Festuca glauca' 3 x Large Plug Plants

A truly versatile perennial grass, blue fescue has an eye-catching blue hue that lasts all year. With its clump-forming habit, blue fescue forms uniform balls of foliage topped with feathery straw bloom stalks in the summer.

It can be used as an accent plant, in mass plantings, containers, and crevices. Blue fescue is also drought tolerant, making it a good choice for rock gardens.

Blue fescue plants are evergreen, but they do lose some of the older blades and grow new fresh deep blue leaves in spring. The older leaves adhere to the plant and spoil the bright coloration. However, you can simply comb them out with your fingers.

Frost Protection Needed: This plant is sensitive to cold temperatures and must be protected from frost. Keep it indoors or in a sheltered area until the weather warms up. Gradually acclimate it to outdoor conditions when the risk of frost has passed.
