Sisyrinchium ‘Devon Skies’


Blue-eyed Grass

 USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 1.493.040


A cute little British selection of Blue-eyed Grass, valuable in the rock garden as well as for edging in the border. This forms a low clump of grassy green leaves, bearing soft sky-blue flowers with a dark-blue throat and yellow eye. Blooming begins in late spring. Not really a grass, these are close cousins to the more familiar garden Iris. A charming little gem! Clumps may be easily divided every 3 to 4 years, in early spring.
