RE: blue foliage

Nancy,
I love the Selaginella in my walkway, but there is a blue one ???!  Truly,
cross your heart now, is it really blue enough to be noticeable?

Most of the blue color does tend to fade with the really hot days but I will

let you know when I see how all the Carexes do by September.  Another of the

BLUE plants I love is Selaginella uncinata, peacock blue.  I finally got a 
strong plant and put it in the right spot and now have a ground cover of 
this primitive plant.
