Blue-eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium angustifolium)

$5.00

Despite its common name, the Blue-eyed Grasses are not grasses at all but rather members of the Iris family. They handle competition quite well and readily spread via underground rhizomes, which is great because a large patch of Blue-eyed grass is pretty awesome, especially if you are a bee. Halictid bees, including green metallic bees, are probably the most important visitors of the flowers, where they collect pollen or suck nectar. (illinoiswildflower.info).
