Name: Roemer’s Fescue - Festuca idahoensis ssp. roemeri
Plant type: Bunchgrass
Description: Planting a meadow? Add in this bunchgrass for a variety of reasons! Evergreen in the winter (so you won’t be staring at flower stalks all winter long) and overwintering habitat for pollinators and beneficial insects are two of the biggest bonuses. A critical (and disappearing) species in the diminishing Oak Savanna habitat, adding Roemer’s Fescue to your landscape is an homage to the natural history of the Willamette Valley.
Growing conditions: Sun, dry to moist soils
Size: Grows 1-3’ tall and 1-2’ wide
Wildlife favorite: Insects
**Only available in 1 gallons
