Juncus Blue Arrows
An easy-to-grow native perennial.
A great houseplant, waterside subject, border standout, and container feature!
As straight as an arrow, as narrow as an arrow, and as true as an arrow, this Juncus richly earns its name with every stiff, slender, upright stem! Such a handsome, tidy ornamental grass, it adds splendid texture and unusual color to any display. And talk about versatile -- it can be grown as a houseplant, a pond plant, or in the border!
Blue Arrows is a native Rush with a compact, upright, dense habit. Very tolerant of heat and moisture, it thrives in a wide range of settings. The foliage is topped by golden plumes in late summer (they make lovely Everlastings), but it's the leaves that are the real draw here. Distinctive and colorful, they add interest wherever they appear.
Blue Arrows reaches 3 feet high (in bloom) and about a foot wide, growing best in full sun but also amenable to the lower light of indoor settings. Try it in mixed containers, accent plantings, and the foundation. The maintenance is so low and the impact so big! You're going to love this super-easy grass. Zones 5-9. Pkt is 10 seeds.
