Blue Wildrye (Elymus glaucus)

Blue wildrye (Elymus glaucus) is a perennial bunchgrass that grows upright to about 4 feet. It grows as narrow tufts of several erect stems and spreads outward by rhizomes.  It is a common and widespread species native to North America from Alaska to New York to northern Mexico. Blue wildrye is a crucial soil stabilizer, habitat creator, and food source for local wildlife. The seeds are a food source for native mammals and birds. This is a popular accent grass for the garden, providing green to blue green color and texture contrast. It can hybridize with other species of Elymus to produce highly variable forms. From Calscape.

Grasses come in sets of 4 stubs.
