Grass - Golden Toupee Fescue The Grass 'Golden Toupee Fescue', Festuca ovina glauca 'Golden Toupee', is a beautiful tufted ornamental grass. A superb choice for a showy border planting or rock garden, the tight clumps of bright yellow foliage also complement conifers and other evergreens and also work well in containers. This blue fescue cultivar is a slowly spreading, ornamental grass which typically forms a dense, tufted clump (8" tall by 12" wide) of thin, gracefully arching, sharply pointed, hair-like grass blades which are bright chartreuse as opposed to the usual blue-gray of the species. Somewhat insignificant, pale green flowers first appear in flattened, terminal panicles above the foliage on erect, slender stems in early summer, maturing to a straw color by mid-summer Pest and disease free. |
