It is a bunch-type grass (it grows in dense tufts rather than spreading by runners) with very fine, blue-green leaves. Its defining trait is toughness: it has extreme drought tolerance and thrives in sandy, rocky, gravelly, and nutrient-poor soils where ordinary turf grasses die. It needs almost no fertilizer, can be left completely unmowed for a flowing meadow look, and shrugs off the harshest northern winters. The fine blue-green tufts also make it genuinely ornamental, so it works as both a problem-solver and a feature. Our seed is uncoated and tested for purity and germination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraph\" style=\"text-indent: -14.0pt;
