Canyon Prince Wild Rye |
One of the best known and utilized native grass selections in Southern CA. Beautiful blue-grey foliage that spreads to 3'-4' or more. It will reach a height of 2'-3'. Flowers rarely. It does spread by rhizomes although not as vigorously as some closely related species. Can be extremely drought tolerant and care must be taken not to over water this species as it can rot from the center. Otherwise, it is carefree and requires virtually no maintenance.
