Elymus

Silver-blue grasses that look great in the border. Most turn buttery yellow in autumn. Watch out - some species of Elymus are invasive - but not the one that we sell!

Elymus magellanicusElymus magellanicus: A lovely blue-silver grass forming neat clumps and growing to about 2ft / 60cm tall. 

It makes an excellent foil for bright coloured flowers as well as silvers and pinks. 

Grows in sun or very light shade and is drought tolerant. It will very gently self seed (perhaps half dozen seedlings per plant).

Also known as Agropyron magellanicum and Leymus magellanicus. 

Not be to confused with Lime Grass (Elymus arenius) which is quite invasive.

For any garden visitor in 2011 who was disappointed that we'd sold out, we will do growing a lot more for 2012.
