Turfgrass Information

Javelin Juncus, Juncus Pallidus

Big Bluestem

Full Sun, Annual

This rush has a nice clumping form and spiky growth. The foliage is greener and taller than the Blue Arrows Juncus. It is an annual, but still provides some winter interest if you choose to leave it in the garden. It does not seem to reach its full height potential in the Kansas growing season.
