Sisyrinchium palmifolium, commonly known as Palm-Leaf Yellow-Eyed Grass, is a deciduous perennial herb, despite its common name, and is native to the grasslands and open woodlands of South America. It typically grows to a height and width of approximately 2 feet (0.6 meters). This species is characterized by its narrow, palm-like leaves and small, star-shaped yellow flowers that bloom in the spring and summer. The flowers are moderately showy and attract pollinators.

Palm-Leaf Yellow-Eyed Grass is appreciated for its unique foliage that adds texture to garden beds and borders. It is often used in rock gardens, as a border plant, or in naturalized areas where its grass-like appearance can be showcased. In cultivation, it requires full sun to part shade and prefers medium water, thriving in well-draining soils. While it is not known for serious pest or disease problems, it can suffer from root rot if overwatered or planted in poorly draining soils. It is not typically invasive but should be monitored to ensure it does not spread beyond its desired area in the garden.CC BY-SA 4.0
