Blockhouse Park is host to over 30 species of grass (!!) and while the grassy patches of the park may appear unkempt or weedy at first glance, they are actually incredibly diverse and play a vital role in Blockhouse Park’s ecosystem. For example, the Canadian bluejoint is a clump forming, perennial grass with numerous slender, erect-blue green stems and large, arching, tan flowers in the summer.
