Sisyrinchium striatum plant Beneficial insectsAlso known as Pale Yellow Eye Grass this perennial forms tufts of long swordlike grey green foliage. In late spring or early summer, it produces multiple spikes of small, pale yellow flowers with golden centres and thin pale mauve stripes on the outer edges of the petals that rise above the foliage.
