Narrow-leaf blue eyed grass looks like a small ornamental grass until May (in NC) when these adorable flowers start popping up on the end of the blade. Not a grass at all, blue eyed grasses are in the iris family. This plant is great for edging, looks fabulous planted in groups. Its home is moist, open well-drained woods, streambanks, and slopes but can tolerate some sun if kept moist to occasionally dry. 'Lucerne' foilage has blueish tint.
Blue eyed grass is a great substitute for Mondo grass (monkey grass, Liriopes).
Blue eyed grass attracts butterflies, a variety of bees and syrphid flies. Birds eat the seed.
