Juncus ColorGrass® 'Blue Arrows' Rush is a unique wetland plant that graces the garden with stunning tufts of stiff, blue-green leaves. This ornamental perennial grass brings an attractive vertical dimension to your landscape, adding texture and color that evolves throughout the seasons. Starting off as a vibrant lime green, the leaves transition to a captivating bluish hue as the year progresses. Despite the foliage dying back in colder climates during the winter, it faithfully reemerges with the arrival of spring.
As a variant of Juncus inflexus, also known as rush, hard rush, or blue rush, 'Blue Arrows' shows off an upright growth habit. It gradually expands through rhizomes and may self-seed under ideal conditions. While it serves as a striking standalone plant, 'Blue Arrows' truly shines when grouped or massed in garden beds, borders, or naturalized areas near water features. It also thrives as an indoor plant.
'Blue Arrows' Rush is a robust plant that requires little maintenance and flourishes in full sun to part shade and consistently moist to wet soil. It shows remarkable heat tolerance across various environments and, once established, can withstand periods of drought.
