Description

Blue-eyed Grass
Sisyrinchium species

Perennial native plant

Height:  1  foot

Width:  1 foot

Flower color:  blue

Bloom time:  summer

Light needed:  sun

Soil needed:  moist, not rich and well drained soil

Notes:  This plant is in the iris family.  The flowers close in the afternoon or evening and open up again in the morning.  They readily spread from seed.  This short-lived perennial will decline if allowed to dry out.  Heavy mulch causes crown rot and rich, organic soils encourage rank, vegetative growth.

Attracts birds which eat the seeds
Resistant to deer
