Sesleria caerulea

A UK native, blue moor grass, Sesleria caerulea, is a lime-loving evergreen grass that can be found naturally growing on calcareous grasslands.

It's grown for its blue-green leaves and attractive spring-summer flowers. In gardens, this compact grass looks best planted en masse for ground cover.

For best results, grow Sesleria caerulea in full sun or partial shade in moist, well-drained soil that is neutral to alkaline in pH. Give plants a tidy in spring by raking through them with your hands to remove dead or tired flowers and foliage.
