Help me identify this plant.....#plantid I know it's a grass and it's of blue in colour, anyone suggest a name please?? I'd very much like to learn how to look after this as my other one seems to have problems 🙄. Thanks. Dave 👍🏻
They like full sun and good draining soil. Dead foliage can usually be combed out with fingers and older plants (2-4 years) can die back in the centre so best to dig up and divide making two plants and then you can separate the dead from good remaining foliage and replant with lots of good stuff to help growth.
I love Elijah Blue it's very attractive and I'm glad I've seen what Justin said. I'll be doing the same to mine it looks like one of the great Tina Turner's wigs!😄Thank you @Justin 😊

I'd also advise cutting out the flower heads to keep it look compact, particularly as they look to have dropped 👍🏼
Much appreciated @justin I'll get on with that later again thanks for the help@👍🏻👍🏻
