Elijah Blue Fescue, a native of France is most notable for its stunning icy-blue foliage. It holds its colour year round, making it a stand out in the winter garden. The foliage can grow to 1 ft. Tawny brown flower spikes rise above the foliage in summer. A great accent in rock gardens, and its fine clumping makes it an excellent border grass.
