Sisyrinchium angustifolium - Lucerne
A charming and delicate perennial, Lucerne (Sisyrinchium angustifolium ‘Lucerne’) produces clusters of star-shaped violet-blue blooms with bright yellow eyes atop grassy, semi-evergreen foliage. The flowers are larger and more plentiful than in the species, offering a showy display from late spring into early summer, occasionally with sporadic rebloom later. Its fine-textured foliage forms a tidy clump (~10–12 in tall and wide) that softens edges and adds contrast in rock gardens, borders, or native plantings. As a low-maintenance and deer-resistant plant, it’s perfect for gardeners seeking delicate color with minimal fuss.
