But now?
In a sea of dead things this little guy is a cheery blast of chartreuse.
I think I'd like to buy 40 more of these. And I'd like to make it grow. Does anyone have this grass? Is it ever going to stretch its legs?

I need to get more of these
I planted Festuca glauca 'Golden Toupee' last spring and it didn't do much. It didn't grow at all and it faded to an unremarkable white/blue.
But now?

I have the blue version (2 years now) and its barely grown bigger than a toupee.
ReplyDeleteNice! I would like to see a whole bunch planted together to make a sort of meadowy ground cover.
ReplyDeleteMe too! I think it would be pretty in the summer AND the winter.
DeleteI'm not familiar with that little guy...but a lot of the Fescues stay pretty small...this might be one of them. He certainly looks like he prefer cooler weather!
ReplyDeleteYou can split off a bit (get some roots) and start yourself a new clump.
ReplyDeleteThe tag says 12-15 inches. Liars!
ReplyDeleteIt's a cutie, all right. Might be a good alternative to 'Northern Lights' which I have planted unsuccessfully several times.
ReplyDeleteI looove Northern Lights. Is that one tricky to grow?
ReplyDeleteGolden Toupee? I want it just for the name!
