Sisyrinchium angustifolium 'Devon Skies' | Devon Skies Blue-eyed Grass

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Sisyrinchium angustifolium ‘Devon Skies’ produces clear sky-blue flowers with golden yellow centers held above slender, grass-like foliage. Blooms appear in late spring and often continue into early summer, opening in sunlight and closing on cloudy days. Narrow, upright leaves form tidy clumps that maintain a clean, linear presence through the growing season. The flowers are star-shaped with well-defined petals, creating a crisp, luminous effect that reads clearly even at a distance.

Native to eastern North America, this selection is valued for edging paths, filling sunny borders, and weaving through gravel gardens or meadow-style plantings, where its fine texture integrates easily with other perennials.
