Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium angustifolium ‘Lucerne’) is a compact, clump-forming herbaceous perennial admired for its vibrant violet-blue flowers, golden-yellow flower centers, and slender, grass-like foliage. Despite its common name, blue-eyed grass is not a true grass. It belongs to the iris family and is valued for its delicate spring-to-early-summer flowers and tidy growth habit.

During its flowering season, Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass produces numerous small, star-shaped blossoms in rich blue to violet-blue shades. Each flower features a contrasting yellow center that adds brightness and definition. The flowers rise above narrow, upright green leaves, creating a naturalistic appearance suitable for perennial borders, rock gardens, meadow-style plantings, and pollinator-friendly landscapes.

Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass performs best in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil with moderate moisture. Its compact, tufted habit makes it suitable for garden edging, smaller planting spaces, and decorative outdoor containers. As an herbaceous perennial, it may become dormant or lose some foliage during winter, depending on local climate and growing conditions.

Each order includes 1 live Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass supplied in a 1-gallon nursery pot (G1).
