GREEN THUMB TIP

This grass is one of the most versatile out there. Put it along borders or in containers. It also has few to no problems with diseases, so it’s a sure thing!

BLUE FESCUE

PROFILE

It might be one of the smallest grasses available, but it’s also one of the most interesting in color with its spiky blades that have a silvery blue hue. The dome shape of this plant almost looks like a porcupine, hiding among the other perennials in your flowerbed. This one can take some shade. In fact, if you have extremely hot or dry summers, it’s probably a good idea to place it in shade so it won’t die off in the heat.
