De vragen die we het vaakst krijgen over deze plant. Staat jouw vraag er niet bij? Onze plantexperts helpen je graag.
Stel je vraagHow many Festuca glauca do you need per m²?
Allow about 12 plants per m², 25 to 30 cm apart. For an edge along a path, plant 3 to 4 plants per metre. Use the calculator on this page to convert your area into a number of plants.
When do you plant blue fescue?
Plant in spring from March to May or in early autumn in September and October. That gives the roots time to establish before the wet winter.
Where does Festuca glauca 'Elijah Blue' grow best?
In full sun, in dry soil that drains well. In shade or wet soil the foliage turns greener and the plant declines faster.
Is Festuca glauca evergreen and hardy?
Yes, blue fescue is hardy and keeps its blue foliage all year. It does suffer in wet soil in winter.
Do you need to prune Festuca glauca?
Do not cut the grass short. In spring, comb out the dead foliage with your fingers or a rake. Divide the clumps every 2 to 3 years to keep them compact.
