Pruning blue moor grass — FAQ
When should I prune blue moor grass?
Early spring for light tidying; after flowering for deadheading. Run gloved fingers through the clump to remove dead blades. Trim any untidy edges lightly with scissors. Remove spent flower spikes at their base once blooming is finished if you prefer a neater appearance.
How often does blue moor grass need pruning?
Annually (light tidy); as needed (deadheading). Blue Moor Grass (Sesleria caerulea) is a compact, low-growing, semi-evergreen cool-season grass requiring minimal pruning. Simply comb out dead leaves in early spring with gloved hands or scissors. A light trim to neaten the clump is acceptable but a hard cutback is generally unnecessary and can reduce vigour. Remove spent flower spikes after blooming if tidiness matters.
