Clade: Blue Fescue belongs to the vascular plants. It is also classified as a dicot angiosperm.
Habitat: High maintenance is needed as well as dry to medium, well-drained soil in the full sun. It uses ground cover and tolerates such things as rocky soil, drought, and air pollution. It requires about thirty to fifty centimeters of space.

Special notes:  It is mostly used as an ornamental plant such as rock gardening and in the front row of flower beds without preventing growth of plants behind it.
