Helictotrichon sempervirens, or Blue Oat Grass, forms clusters of graceful, pale-blue blades that grow 2-3’ tall and wide. Topped by ethereal, wheat-colored flower stalks in summer that sway in the breeze, this ornamental grass adds colorful relief to landscapes. Evergreen in warmer climates, this cool-season grass is semi-evergreen where winters are harsh. Blue Oat grass thrives in dry soil with good drainage and full sun, though it tolerates light shade. Deer resistant and tolerant of drought and seaside conditions, Helictotrichon sempervirens is a popular choice in landscapes and a recipient of the Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
