Blue Eyed Grass

Sisyrinchium montanum

Despite its name, it is a member of the iris family, producing charming violet-blue flowers with yellow centres in May and June above grass-like foliage.

  • Delicate, tufted wildflower that self-seeds to naturalize in meadows and grassy areas
  • Excellent for rock gardens, front-of-border plantings, and prairie gardens
  • Blooms heavily in May and June in average, well-drained soils in full sun
  • Forms attractive, fine-textured clumps that combine well with other meadow plants
