To propagate blue-eyed grass, the most common method is division, where you dig up an established clump and separate it into smaller sections with roots and shoots, replanting them individually; you can also propagate it by collecting seeds from the plant when the seed pods turn dark and wrinkled, and planting them in the fall after a period of cold stratification;.
Key points about propagating blue-eyed grass:
Best time for division: Early spring or fall, every 2-3 years to rejuvenate the plant.
Seed collection: Harvest seed pods when they turn dark brown and wrinkled.
Seed stratification: Blue-eyed grass seeds require cold stratification, so plant them in the fall or refrigerate them for a few weeks before planting.
Planting seeds: Lightly cover seeds as they need light to germinate.
Division process: Dig around the established clump with a spade or fork.
Gently lift the plant out of the soil. Separate the clump into smaller sections, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Replant the divisions immediately in prepared soil.
