These hybrids showcase slender, grass-like foliage, reaching 12-18 inches in height. Come spring, they bear colorful blooms with various patterns in shades of blue, purple, yellow, and white. They prefer well-draining soil and modest watering, making them suitable for low-maintenance, water-conservative gardens.
