Sesleria Caerulea Var. Calcarea

Blue-eyed grass, scientifically known as Sesleria caerulea var. calcarea, is a striking member of the grass family that captivates with its delicate blue flowers and compact stature. Native to the rocky and calcareous soils of Europe, this plant thrives in challenging environments where few others can survive. Its unique appearance, featuring narrow leaves and clusters of blue blooms, makes it a popular choice for rock gardens and alpine displays. Despite its modest size, the Blue-eyed grass holds cultural and ecological significance in its native habitats. It serves as a symbol of resilience and beauty in the face of harsh conditions.
