Add Blue-Green Foliage and Texture to Your Landscape
Add color and texture to your garden with Blue Dart Rush Grass, known for its striking blue-green foliage and upright growth. This herbaceous perennial thrives in both garden beds and mixed containers, offering year-round interest with its fine, delicate texture. Naturally suited to moist environments, it also shows impressive drought tolerance once established, making it a versatile choice for various landscapes.
Blue Dart Rush Grass is easy to care for, requiring minimal maintenance. Simply cut back the foliage in late winter to encourage fresh growth in spring. Its attractive bluish-green leaves with subtle blue variegation make it a standout in any garden, providing a beautiful contrast to other plants.
This hardy grass thrives in full sun and can tolerate light shade, performing best in consistently moist soils. Over time, it will slowly spread through creeping rhizomes, creating a lush, dense appearance that enhances the overall look of your garden.
Whether you're looking to enhance a pond area, add variety to containers, or create a dynamic garden bed, Blue Dart Rush Grass is a reliable and visually appealing choice that will elevate your outdoor space. Grow yours today!
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location with full sun to light shade. Plant in consistently moist to wet soils, though Blue Dart can tolerate slightly drier conditions once established. Space plants about 18-24 inches apart to allow room for their slow-spreading growth.
2. Watering: Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the first growing season. Blue Dart Rush Grass thrives in wet conditions but can tolerate slightly drier soils once they mature. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely.
3. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as Blue Dart Rush Grass typically requires minimal feeding. Reapply fertilizer lightly if the plant shows signs of nutrient deficiency.
