Giant Wild Rye

Overview

The Giant Wild Rye, Leymus condensatus, is a robust perennial grass, reaching up to 8 ft tall and 6 ft wide. It flourishes in full sun and tolerates drought, requiring minimal care once established. Blue-green blades form dense clumps, offering erosion control and habitat for wildlife. Ideal for large-scale landscapes, it's a striking ornamental with feathery inflorescences that sway gracefully in the breeze, adding motion and texture to garden designs.
