Juncus inflexus 'Lovesick Blues'

Common Name: Weeping Blue Rush, Ornamental Grass

An exciting introduction from Plant Delights Nursery, this rush first appeared in their bog garden as a seedling of Juncus inflexus. 'Lovesick Blues' forms a weeping, rounded mound of smooth, steel blue leaves which radiate out from the central crown. Small flowers emerge near the tips of the leaves, but this grass is grown more for its foliage. It looks especially nice near the edges of streams or in shallow ponds, and combines well with Carex m. 'Oehme'.
