Blue-eyed Grass
Sisyrinchium angustifolium
Blue eyed grass is a native re-seeding, perennial wildflower that likes moist soils. A member of the iris family, it has little blue/purple flowers that bloom profusely in the spring, attracting pollinators, and then it appears as a clump grass the rest of the year. It likes sun to partial shade, average to wet soils and is best when planted in mass along moist or irrigated garden edges or pathways.
