An improved North American native Blue-Eyed Grass, 'Moody Blues' has the largest flower of all in the genus. From mid to late spring through early to mid summer it shows off abundant cheery bright violet-blue flowers with yellow eyes atop a clump of grassy, iris-like blue-green foliage. If trimmed after the first bloom it will rebloom through late summer to early fall. A very low maintenance plant, this diminutive beauty is great for pollinators and early season butterflies and its seeds are enjoyed by birds. Excellent as an accent in small garden spaces and containers or in groupings or as a low border in garden beds or along paths and walkways.

Despite it's common name, blue-eyed grass is not a grass. The genus Sisyrinchium is a group of perennial plants in the iris family (Iridaceae).
