Bermuda Blue-Eyed Grass

Sisyrinchium angustifolium

Description

Bermuda blue-eyed grass is a plant native to Bermuda. It has narrow leaves and small, blue flowers with yellow centers. The plant grows to a height of about 8-12 inches and spreads to a width of about 6-12 inches. It grows relatively quickly, with a growth rate of about 1-2 inches per year.

One way to differentiate Bermuda blue-eyed grass from similar plants is by its blue flowers with yellow centers. Other plants with blue flowers may have different-colored centers, such as white or purple.

Bermuda blue-eyed grass prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. To cultivate it successfully, a grower might need to provide these conditions and ensure that the soil is not too wet. The plant is winter hardy and can tolerate cold temperatures.

The plant is not edible. It has no known medicinal uses. However, it can be used as a ground cover in gardens and as a source of nectar for pollinators. It may also have some value for wildlife as a source of shelter or food for small animals.
