"Oh you are so lucky!" was what everyone exclaimed when I'd give them the address of where we lived. It was always an easy address to remember, in any country we were living in at that time. Hotel & Resort xxx. The advantages of being a hoteliers daughter - not having a house to call home but a whole hotel. I did not really realize the power of this fact until I actually started school.
Somehow having a beach, a few pools, restaurants, all kinds of sporting activities at my fingertips quickly advanced me to the top of the most popular lists in any of the schools I was visiting. I loved it - my brother not so. I was 8-12, still impressionable and did not understand that these advantages or lists did not acquire the best or the most loyal sorts of friends one would have hoped to secure.
For my parents it was always a balance act. Now that I am a parent myself, I can imagine it must have been a difficult task to convey the message when one was living a life of double standards. On one hand we were "like every other normal child", but we just had to look around at our surroundings and saw that we were not. I did not know many normal kids who had a kitchen called Room Service.
For my brother and myself it was the most natural thing and we grew up without any expected airs of being better than others. My mother made sure of that. So, while we had our own hotel room each, we still were in charge of clearing up the mess we left. Yes, the housekeeping made our beds and made sure we had fresh towels everyday, but just like every other child it was our responsibility to pick up after ourselves. Yes, we were spoilt by the pastry chef who always had a sweet treat ready for us when we got "home" from school, but my mum also made sure that the mini bar was not ladened with chocolates and sweet drinks but with fruit and healthy snacks.
My parents did a brilliant job with those double standards, and while we knew there was something special in the way we were growing up, we were very much kept within our boundaries, in fact even more so because of our situation, by both of them.
I wasn't much older than Soeren, maybe 8 years old. One day I had just returned from school, it happened rarely, but I found myself alone in my room. My mum seemed to be out and the nanny was not around. It was lunch time and nothing was ordered. So, having seen my parents do this several times, I picked up the phone, dialed room service. Just as I had seen my dad and mum, I announced my name and informed them of my room number. I then proceeded to order every item on the menu, reading the menu back to front without stopping.
A few minutes later the nanny appeared and soon there was a knock on the door, as she opened the door, she was surprised, or maybe it was shock, to see 5 or 6 waiters pushing 5 or 6 trolleys in front of them loaded with the food I had ordered from the menu! Unfortunately for us my mum came back before we could hide or eat up all the evidence.
My mother visited the room service manager that day and asked how was it possible that an 8 year old girl order the whole menu and not even one person on the entire staff object. The answer was close at hand – they were obliged to do so due to the position my dad had at the hotel. My mother was stumped! What happened to using common sense?
That day the lesson I was taught by my parents was to use my common sense despite what others think!
One of the disadvantages, and there certainly were a few, of living in a hotel was the fact that there came a point when you could not bear to look at the menu in any of the restaurants or room service. The food literally hung out of our throats. Too fine, too rich and too fancy – there were often times when we just craved the simple and the homey. At times like these it was good that my dad was in the position he was in, for my mum could simply walk into an unused part of the kitchen, get her ingredients and begin working her magic.
Mutter paneer is an all-time favorite of mine. This popular North Indian dish is often found in Indian restaurants around the world but nothing compares to the way my mother would make it.
Mutter paneer is basically a flavorful vegetarian dish made of soft homemade Indian cheese called paneer, which is lightly pan friend then added to a spiced gravy with peas and tomatoes.
In this recipe I've adapted my mother's recipe over the years and instead of a thin gravy, I have created a creamier version, with an intensive fruity flavored tomato sauce, which coats the soft homemade paneer.
Mutter Paneer
Printable version of recipe here
250g paneer, cut into cubes
1 small red onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 inch thick piece of ginger, roughly cut
3 large cloves garlic
1 green chili
Canola oil
1 teaspoon black cumin seeds
1 bay leaf
250g chunky tomato passata
2 teaspoon garam masala
300g fresh or frozen peas, if using frozen do not thaw them
100ml cream
pinch of sea salt
handful of coriander leaves, roughly choppedMethod
- To pan-fry the paneer cubes heat a small glug of oil in a skillet to medium and place the paneer cubes in a single layer. Cook them, turning occasionally until all the surfaces is a light golden color. Carefully remove the cheese cubes and allow the drain on kitchen paper towels. Set aside.
- Pulse together onion, garlic, ginger and chili in a food processor until finely pureed.
- Pour a drizzle of oil into a saucepan and heat to medium-high. Sprinkle the black cumin seeds and bay leaf and cook for approx 6-8 seconds, until the cumin seeds are fragrant and turn slightly brown.
- Add the onion-garlic mixture and stir-fry for approx. 6 minutes until the mixture takes one a reddish golden color.
- Pour the passata and mix. Lower the heat to medium, then add the garam masala and salt. Allow to simmer covered for 5 minutes, then remove the lid and simmer for another 5 minutes, until the sauce becomes thick.
- Add about 50ml of water, then the peas and stir. Simmer for another 8 minutes or until the peas are tender. Keep an eye on the consistency of the gravy. If you find it is becoming too dry add a few tablespoons of water.
- Fold in the cream, then finally add the paneer and allow to simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Serve sprinkled with chopped coriander leaves. Is perfect with naans or pitas and even better with a light pilaf.
The Food Guide Tips:
- Make your own homemade paneer
- Find out everything about the Indian spice kitchen
While my mother's version is based on the classic Punjabi style of making mutter paneer, what I like about my version is that the gravy is thicker and heavily coats the paneer, so each bite of the cheese is accompanied by a plethora of incredible flavors. Paneer itself is fairly bland and flavorless, but with a rich and full bodied tasting gravy it adds a heavenly highlight. The sauce itself is fruity and tangy and wonderfully aromatic and must be wiped clean with morsels of rotis.
This is a perfect side dish and can be accompanied by any of your favorite Indian flatbreads. It works well with a creamy butter chicken for a more elaborate meal.

Everyone keeps telling me how organized we are with the prep-work for the move and how far we have already gotten. How come then do I not feel like we are organized and why is it that every time I think I have been good packing boxes and sorting out several items, I am bombarded with another 10 to dos?
Currently I often feel like a chicken without a head - running in every direction trying to make sure everything on our list is covered. To everyone else I appear to have everything under control - appearances can be deceptive!
Usually when I am feeling a little low or need a bit of motivation, I will go either into the kitchen and tinker around with a few ingredients or up to my photo studio and play around with the camera. I am not finding any time for that right now, making me a bit of a nervy person to be around.
Instead I try to console myself with simple food my mum used to cook for me. It pacifies me and somehow the memories ground me enough to continue - another few boxes!
This particular dish has a story behind it. As our school back in Doha would end around 1:30 PM we usually would have lunch waiting for us when we got home. However, on the days I had practice, mum often packed lunch for me. One day one of my friends brought raw shredded cabbage with some kind of vinaigrette in her packed lunch. I cannot pinpoint the reason, but the cabbage simple made my mouth water endlessly. I went home and told my mother about the cabbage, to which she gave me a rather odd look. She did not know many girls who discovered their passion for cabbage at 16?
Mum being mum, was not going to pack any raw cabbage for her daughter. Instead, the next time I had practice I was pleasantly surprised by her take on cabbage. Simply sautéed in aromatic Indian spices with the addition of sliced fennel, the cabbage was more than I had imagined. Accompanying the cabbage and fennel were baked chicken cubes and two whole wheat tortillas. Yes - my mother could pack awesome lunches.
A few nights ago it was exactly this meal I re-created for us after a marathon session of sorting out and packing all my seasonal decoration. There are no frills about this dish, nothing eccentric and no fancy cooking, just cabbage, fennel, a few spices and a lot of happy memories. But all those who have tried this spiced Indian cabbage fell in love with it. I think you will too.
Simply Sautéed Spiced Indian Cabbage and Fennel
Printable version of recipe here.
1 large fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1/2 head of cabbage, shredded
1 large Spanish onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 green/red chili, chopped
1 teaspoon garam masala
Salt and pepper
Canola oil
- Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add mustard and cumin seeds and allow to sauté for 30 seconds until they begin to pop and become fragrant.
- Add fennel and onion slices and sauté for 5-8 minutes, then add a pinch of salt and turmeric powder.
- Pile shredded cabbage into pan, cook covered for approx.15 minutes, or until cabbage has cooked down. Stir often to avoid vegetables sticking to the pan. Add chili then reduce heat to medium-low, and cook covered for a further 20 to 25 minutes. The vegetables should be slightly golden and caramelized.
- Sprinkle with garam masala, toss well and serve hot, with tortillas or Indian flatbreads.
Goes well with:
- Creamy chicken curries like this butter chicken or simply baked lime chicken
- Rich lentil dishes like these creamy black lentils or coconut red lentils
Food Guide Tips – Ingredient Discovery
- Fennel
It's simple, quick and satisfying. There is no glorifying the recipe here but fact is the combination of cabbage and fennel is outrageously good. The sweetness of caramelized vegetables plays off the rich aromas of the Indian spices extremely well. Although cabbage is not everyone's darling, served this way both Tom and Soeren were surprised to discover that it can be quite delicious and very satisfying.
I am looking forward to my mum coming out to visit in a few weeks. Food always tastes better when mum prepares it ;-).
Come celebrate with me for my last mingle. I would love you all to come over for a celebration of Spring Cakes for this Monthly Mingle. Hope to see you there!

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- For years, I had this vision of how Andy Reid would walk away. I carried it until pretty recently, until about 2010. The way I figured it, the final camera shot would go like this: Reid finishing the press conference after the Super Bowl, finding his wife, Tammy, in the crowd of reporters -- she always goes to his post-game press conferences -- and walking away with one arm around her and the Lombardi Trophy in the other.
It was cinematic and Hollywood, yes -- but didn't the law of averages have to work for Reid at some point? Didn't it? That was the theory, anyway. In the last 2 years, though, the vision changed. We all know the reasons -- Michael Vick, a couple of bad drafts, a failure to replace Jim Johnson at defensive coordinator despite repeated attempts. And while it was easy to see it ending badly, it was hard to predict the last day.
Sunday was the last day.
It was cold and miserable and buffeted by a bitter wind. It was sloppy and inept. And when it was over -- historians will record the final final score for Reid as the Eagles' coach was Giants 42, Eagles 7 -- the black-clad coach left the sidelines for the last time. All that remains is the press conference where he will be fired, presumably on Monday.
He will be known for how much he won, and how much his quarterbacks threw the ball. He will be known for "time's yours" and taking responsibility and needing to put his players in a better position and looking forward to the privilege of playing everyone. He will be remembered for being the best coach the Eagles ever had at the same time he is remembered for failing to win the the Super Bowl.
The final indignities of the final Sunday -- the bad tackling, the terrible secondary play, the erratic quarterbacking of Vick, the deserved fourth-quarter benching of cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha -- will not linger, mostly because almost nobody was paying attention. But the answer to the trivia question will be this: Reid's first quarterback was Doug Pederson and his last quarterback was Trent Edwards, who mopped up Sunday.
There was no spotlight on the players, not on this day. All eyes were on Reid, with the rolled-up play chart in his left hand and the red challenge flag in his back pocket and 14 years of memories locked inside. As he walked off, for the last time, that is where those memories remained.

Imagine if every time you walked into a McDonald's the menu was different, the food was different, or the prices were different. If you had to relearn McDonald's every time you walked in, it would be less attractive as a fast food restaurant. People rely on consistency and past experience for fast decision making. Inconsistencies cause delayed responses and, in some cases, unwanted errors.
Imagine if every time you walked into a McDonald's the menu was different, the food was different, or the prices were different. If you had to relearn McDonald's every time you walked in, it would be less attractive as a fast food restaurant. People rely on consistency and past experience for fast decision making. Inconsistencies cause delayed responses and, in some cases, unwanted errors.
McDonald's lovers have learned the menu through frequent visits to different McDonald's locations (same brand, different locations). Conversely, web users learn standard web behaviors by frequent visits to different websites (different brands and markets). The more consistency there is, the easier it is for users to find their way within a single website and to move from one website to another. Deviation in standards can cause delays for users or cause unwanted user behaviors, such as abandonment in favor of other companies. However, this does not mean that creativity should be banned or that reinvention of the wheel is no longer needed. After all, today's Mercedes looks quite different from Karl Benz's first gasoline automobile.
Restroom signs are fun examples of how creativity and consistency can coexist. Designers often take the familiar male and female symbols and propose their own creative interpretations, offering a unique look-and-feel to a universal symbol.
As long as it doesn't interfere with the goal of the sign—i.e., providing a clear direction and organization—creative designs can offer great ways of uniquely conveying the message.
Macro-Level vs. Micro-Level Consistency
There are two ways of ensuring consistent design. One way is to follow well-established market standards used in other sites (or even other media). This is macro-level consistency. The other way is to establish a new set of rules that remain consistent within a specific site, which I refer to as micro-level consistency. Through the usage of graphic design fundamentals such as colors, type, shapes, layouts, and grids, designers may elect to use the macro approach, the micro approach, or a combination of the two, in order to achieve consistency. This can help build users' trust, improve the speed of usage, enhance readability, and encourage certain behaviors and emotional responses that should result in better experiences.
Consistency through Design Fundamentals
Color Consistency
Color is interpreted by the brain faster than words and, when used correctly, serves as a great visual cue for the functions and behaviors of site elements. Web users learned to trust that blue text (whether underlined or not) is most likely a link that will lead to another page. This is a macro-level standard that has been adapted by many websites.
LaLicious, a bath-and-body product line, chose a micro approach for their website design, using the color pink for links. The usage of a different color for links does not by itself cause inconsistency. However, in this case, the pink text elements function as links only in some cases (boxed in green in the screenshot below), while in other cases the pink text is just plain text. This inconsistency creates confusion as users realize they cannot trust the message conveyed by the colors and are forced to hover over each element to determine its functionality.
One solution to this might be to underline links even when they're not being hovered over. This would differentiate them from non-link pink text elements. Or the color pink could be used for links only. If there is a need to highlight certain words, a bold style could be used instead of text color to indicate emphasis.
Type Consistency
Typography is the style and arrangement of typeset matter. In communication design (with which UX design has significant overlap), the appearance of words is as important as their meaning. Type attributes such as typeface, size, spacing, margins, etc., need to be carefully planned in order to best convey a message and direct users' attention. Users look for familiar patterns of either macro-level or micro-level consistency to quickly scan pages and complete tasks. News sites mimic newspaper type styles, using larger fonts (in many cases bold styles) for main headlines, medium-size fonts for sub-headlines, and smaller fonts for article copy. This macro approach allows quick page scanning and fast decision making as users scan content and determine what to read.
Let's take a look Amazon, the largest online retailer in the world. Within an Amazon.com product page, there are thirteen different font treatments in the product description alone, and the full page includes additional styles. Thirteen styles are too many for users to memorize and decipher to quickly learn a system and reuse it properly. Further, the current micro system lacks visual organization, making it difficult for users to quickly scan the page.
- Font Key (Photoshop point settings):
- 1. 20 point, black
- 2. 12 point, black
- 3. 12 point, blue, underline
- 4. 12 point, gray
- 5. 14 point, black
- 6. 18 point, red
- 7. 14 point, blue, underline
- 8. 14 point, red
- 9. 16 point, green
- 10. 12 point, black, bold
- 11. 12 point, green
- 12. 12 point blue, underline, bold
- 13. 12 point, red
By contrast, here is the same product as presented on eBay. Two font colors and five font sizes and styles are consistently used throughout the product description creating a clear visual path and quick information scanning.
- Font Key (Photoshop point settings):
- 1. 18 point, Black, Bold
- 2. 12 point, gray
- 3. 14 point, black, bold
- 4. 12 point, blue
- 5. 10 point, black
Shape Consistency
Shapes are the building blocks of graphic design and are often used to organize and separate information. Together with type, color, grid, and layout, shapes can confer meanings and certain feelings onto page elements such as copy and images. Circular shapes, for example, will soften an overall look-and-feel, while the sharper corners of a square will appear rigid and orderly.
Shapes are often used to direct the eye through the design and keep the user's interest while moving from one element to the next. Inconsistent usage of shapes may disorient users and interfere with their performance of tasks.
Most sites present their products using a square- or rectangular-shaped areas. This macro approach works well as it is easy to implement and serves the purpose of organization.
The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) often produces small, informative websites for each of their exhibitions. The designers for their color exhibition website broke from the standard square/rectangle shaped product display (macro), presenting the color exhibit site in a unique and fresh light. Each product is presented within circular shapes, each in a slightly different size and alignment. The circular shapes were most likely designed to represent the color wheel (considering the exhibit topic) and give a softer and more playful look to the page. Further, the different size circles and alignment changes were carefully planned and achieved a fun yet organized atmosphere that is easy to navigate.
Layout and Grid
Think of a grid as a plan for your page layout with one goal in mind: a seamless user experience. It provides guidelines for page content and organization, and establishes a modular structure that allows layout variations without affecting readability and consistency.
The site's main navigation design needs a careful consideration when designing the page layout. A website's navigation is its table of contents and one of the main cues for users about the depth of the site and their position within. It is therefore essential to create a navigation system that is easy to locate and use.
A macro-level standard is to position the main navigation either at the top of the page or on the left-hand column (for left-to-right languages, anyway).
The main navigation for MoMA homepage is placed at the bottom of their page layout (a micro approach). This causes multiple issues:
- A natural readers' flow is from left to right, top to bottom. A top navigation often serves as an anchor and a starting point for a page, as well as a comfortable position for users to return to if lost. Placing the navigation at the bottom not only sends users searching for the navigation when they first encounter the page, but also forces them to keep jumping from bottom to top (navigating at the bottom, then jumping to the top of the page to view the content).
- Breadcrumbs and page titles were treated as a macro grid approach as they were positioned at the upper left-hand part of the page. This causes a complete visual disconnect between the main navigation, breadcrumbs, and page titles, which should all work together to serve one purpose: telling users where they are in the process.
In conclusion, keep thinking outside of the box but don't forget the box still exists.
The boundaries of convention, although invisible, have taken a while to establish, and following them will keep you on target. Communication design and UX design are about sending a message for people to read, understand, and follow. Whether you select a macro approach or design a micro system, the goals remain the same: a seamless user experience.

When Dr. Lois Engelbrecht learned that many of the children begging in the streets of Manila had been sexually abused, the social worker took action. She founded the nonprofit Center for the Prevention and Treatment of Child Sexual Abuse in the Philippines in 1994 and has since spread her efforts to other countries.
For Dr. Engelbrecht, the urgency to help children in need was grounded in personal experience: She, too, was victimized as a child, at a boarding school in India. As an adult, she's lived or worked in the Philippines, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, China, Vietnam and Ghana, promoting increased awareness and responsiveness to child sexual abuse in each location.
"When people ask me what I will be doing when I'm traveling to a city, my response is always 'I only know one thing…increasing awareness and prevention of child sex abuse,'" says Dr. Engelbrecht, who earned her PhD in Human Services in 2010 and regularly draws on the research and critical thinking skills she gained at Walden.
Her efforts on behalf of children offer lessons for other human rights advocates. Dr. Engelbrecht explains, "Advocacy through any network is possible. I collect stories, and these stories go a long way in talking to people. I am always quick to make reference to research and other resources. I think nonjudgmental listening is also helpful."
Currently living in Ghana, Dr. Engelbrecht is helping the African Movement for the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect develop an abuse prevention program in the country's Volta Region. In partnership with the Association of International Schools in Africa, Dr. Engelbrecht and her husband received a grant from the U.S. State Department to work with the association on a comprehensive child protection program that all international schools could adopt. She's collaborating with a Ghanaian dancer to create an educational puppet show for use in schools and institutions. She's also using a workbook she created in the Philippines, which has been translated into several languages, to teach Ghana's elementary school children about sexual abuse—including the abuse of boys, a new emphasis of her programs and research.
"Last March, I presented at the International Conference on Sexual Abuse in Africa. There was a lot of interest because I presented the causes of child sexual abuse with a focus on the sociocultural factors that increase a boy's vulnerability to victimization and to becoming a sex offender," Dr. Engelbrecht says. "I brought in my experience from Asia and what I had learned in the short time I had been in Ghana about sexuality, gender, roles, responsibilities, and education."
In Ghana, Dr. Engelbrecht is using the approach she's found effective elsewhere: Learn the culture, adapt programs and services to the country, and find local partners who can continue the effort to combat child sexual abuse.
"I prefer not to lead, but to support leadership," says Dr. Engelbrecht, who points to the longevity of the center in the Philippines as her greatest success. "Starting projects is easy. Keeping them alive for so many years is the difficult part. The Philippines has incredible social workers."
Her work there is not only alive, but also expanding. Center programs are now being revised specifically for the country's Muslim population, with assistance from Dr. Engelbrecht's professional contacts in Saudi Arabia. Dr. Engelbrecht says, "The whole issue of child sexual abuse, and especially how the profession of social work responds to the issue of child sexual abuse, requires a commitment to grow and learn new things as our world changes."

If you've just purchased a new Cub Cadet riding lawn mower and you aren't sure where to start, here is a quick overview of lawn mower basics to get you going. You'll also find helpful lawn mower tips to keep your machine running strong through the years. Before beginning any maintenance on your Cub Cadet lawn mower, ensure your mower is on a flat, level surface.
Understanding lawn mower basics
Step 1 - Connect the battery cables on your Cub Cadet lawn mower
Remove the red battery terminal cover from the red terminal and attach the red cable to the positive terminal. Next, remove the black battery terminal cover from the black terminal and attach the black cable to the negative terminal. Once both cables are attached, place the red cap on the positive terminal. Do not allow the wrench the come in contact with any metal.
Step 2 - Check the oil on your riding lawn mower before each use
Check your engine's oil level with the dip stick before every use since too little or too much oil can damage your engine. You should also examine the oil quality every so often to know when it will need to be changed.
Step 3 - Fill the fuel tank
Using gasoline mixed with a stabilizer like STA-BIL, to extend the shelf-life of the gas, fill the fuel tank before each use so you don't run out while mowing. If you do run out, wait until the engine cools before adding fresh fuel.
Step 4 - Know lawn mower basics before starting your riding lawn mower
To start the mower, be sure you are seated back in the seat. If you are too far forward, the mower may not start. Engage the parking brake. Check to be sure the PTO lever is in the off position and activate the choke.
Step 5 - Start your riding lawn mower
Turn the key to the start position. Once the mower has started, release the key and allow it to return to the on position.
Step 6 - Operate your mower with our lawn mower help tips
To begin driving your mower, move the throttle to the rabbit position. Move the shift lever to forward, press the brake pedal to release the parking brake, and press the drive pedal to increase your speed.
Step 7 - Activate cruise control (on appropriate models)
Your LTX 1040 riding lawn mower is equipped with cruise control. Once you achieve a desired mowing speed, lightly press the cruise control lever downward and hold it in that position. Slowly release your foot from the drive pedal and then release the cruise control lever. You cannot engage cruise control in the fastest drive speed. Never attempt to engage cruise control while in reverse.
Step 8 - Release cruise control for complicated turns, smaller yards or when anyone is nearby
To disengage the cruise control on your riding lawn mower, simply press either the drive pedal or brake pedal.
Step 9 - Engage lawn mower blades
To engage the blades, be sure that your throttle or choke is in the rabbit position. Then, push the PTO or blade engage lever forward into the on position.
Step 10 - Learn how to operate your riding lawn mower in reverse
Properly operating your machine in reverse is one of the most important lawn mower basics. To set the mower in reverse mode, come to a complete stop and turn the blades off. Depress the brake pedal and move the shift lever into reverse position. Finally, turn the key to the reverse/caution mode. Push the PTO/blade lever to the on position to engage the blades. Before pressing the drive pedal, check the area down and behind your riding lawn mower to make sure there are no objects in your path.
Step 11 - Perform proper lawn mower maintenance
Before each time you mow, check your air filter for dirty, loose or damaged parts. It is highly recommended that the air filter, spark plugs, oil and oil filter are replaced every year when you prepare your mower for off-season storage.
Find other tools and accessories that help you do more with your riding lawn mower
There are many attachments and accessories available to help keep a beautiful lawn. For example, bagging is a highly recommended method of helping maintain a healthy lawn be reducing thatch build-up, increasing oxygen and nitrogen absorption and encouraging grass to grow in the bare areas of your yard. You can find baggers, plow attachments, utility carts, spreaders and sweepers for your Cub Cadet lawn mower in the operator's manual or online.

Welcome to our plant search tool. This database contains many of the thousands of plants that we carry. There are some notable exceptions. Hundreds of new perennials come out every year and Make It Green has been a leader in making them available to you. Eventually the recent introductions will make it to our plant search tool but every year there will be a lag between our in-store plant selection and this search tool. Unfortunately this search tool can't cover everything that we will carry this year. We also carry over 100 varieties of rare and unusual evergreens and over 100 varieties of hard-to-find shrubs many of which are not in the plant search. Click on the Plant List button for a list of nearly all the woody plants (trees, shrubs and evergreens) that we have ordered or already have in stock for this coming year.
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass
Sisyrinchium angustifolium 'Lucerne'
Height: 10 inches
Spread: 10 inches
Hardiness Zone: 5a
Other Names: Sisyrinchium bermudianum
Native through most of eastern North America, this ornamental grass is an exciting flower for the garden as well as for naturalizing with its exquisite blue flowers and silvery emerging foliage
Ornamental Features
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass has masses of beautiful plumes of lavender flowers with blue overtones, lemon yellow eyes and violet veins at the ends of the stems from late spring to early summer, which are most effective when planted in groupings. Its attractive glossy narrow leaves emerge silvery blue in spring, turning bluish-green in colour throughout the season.
Landscape Attributes
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass is an herbaceous perennial with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition.
This is a high maintenance plant that will require regular care and upkeep, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. Gardeners should be aware of the following characteristic(s) that may warrant special consideration;
- Self-Seeding
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass is recommended for the following landscape applications;
- Mass Planting
- Rock/Alpine Gardens
- General Garden Use
- Naturalizing And Woodland Gardens
- Container Planting
Planting & Growing
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass will grow to be about 8 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 10 inches. Its foliage tends to remain low and dense right to the ground. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. As an herbaceous perennial, this plant will usually die back to the crown each winter, and will regrow from the base each spring. Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!
This plant does best in full sun to partial shade. It prefers to grow in average to moist conditions, and shouldn't be allowed to dry out. It is not particular as to soil pH, but grows best in sandy soils. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This is a selection of a native North American species. It can be propagated by division; however, as a cultivated variety, be aware that it may be subject to certain restrictions or prohibitions on propagation.
Lucerne Blue-Eyed Grass is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers. It is often used as a 'filler' in the 'spiller-thriller-filler' container combination, providing a mass of flowers and foliage against which the larger thriller plants stand out. Note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden. Be aware that in our climate, most plants cannot be expected to survive the winter if left in containers outdoors, and this plant is no exception. Contact our experts for more information on how to protect it over the winter months.
