Common names include Blue Fescue, Blue Mountain Grass, and Grey Fescue. Clump-forming ornamental grass noted for its glaucous, finely-textured, blue-gray foliage.

Light green flowers with a purple tinge appear in terminal panicles atop stems rising above the foliage in late spring to early summer, but inflorescences are not very showy.
