Koeleria glauca

• Rate of growth: average
• Flowering period: June to July

  A tuft-forming evergreen grass with pretty, grey-green leaves, and dense silver green flower spikelets that fade to buff in the autumn. It prefers dry soils and will tolerate an exposed spot, but it is short lived, so may need to be replaced in a few years. It makes a striking edging to a path or border, and looks great in a gravel garden.
  

• Garden care: Comb through the plant in winter with your fingers to remove dead foliage.
