Plant Profile
Sesleria caerulea – Blue Moor Grass
Add cool blue-green texture and tidy, year-round structure with Blue Moor Grass.
Sesleria caerulea is a compact, cool-season ornamental grass that forms neat clumps of narrow foliage with contrasting blue-green and green leaf surfaces. Short, dark flower spikes appear in spring, adding subtle seasonal interest without overwhelming its rounded shape. Its restrained size makes Blue Moor Grass a useful choice for edging, rock gardens, and repeated accents among flowering perennials. Evergreen to semi-evergreen depending on climate, it offers lasting texture without the height of larger ornamental grasses.
