Flora
This blue-eyed grass is Sisyrinchium angustifolium and goes by a number of common names: narrowleaf blue-eyed grass, eastern blue-eyed grass and pointed blue-eyed grass. A common springtime wildflower that can be found in wet grassy flatwoods, wet prairies & fields, moist roadsides and stream banks throughout nearly all of Florida. The range extends into Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas & Missouri, and all states east of the Mississippi River except West Virginia. It also occurs in Nova Scotia.
Eastern blue-eyed grass has grass-like leaves shorter than the winged flower stems and blooms of up to about an inch across appearing mostly in the spring and early summer. The flowers have six tepals (petals and sepals that look similar) that are pale blue to violet with yellow bases and often have an awn-shaped or bristle tip.
