Festuca glauca is a popular, compact ornamental grass native to Europe and Western Asia. It forms a dense mound of fine, needle-like silver foliage, with short, spiky seed heads appearing in mid-summer.

This hardy, evergreen grass is particularly effective when planted en masse, used as an edging plant or underplanted beneath taller plants. Preferring full sun, it’s a great choice for adding texture and colour to gardens year-round.
