Festuca glauca Elijah Blue is a low-growing perennial tussock grass with striking powdery blue foliage. It has a compact and round habit that tucks into all garden spaces. Buff coloured plumes containing seed heads are produced in summer and add texture and interest. Elijah Blue makes a great feature when planted en masse or used in rockeries and cottage gardens.
