Poa colensoi, the blue tussock, is a species of cool-season grass in the family Poaceae, endemic to New Zealand.[1][2] It is considered the native grass species with the highest potential for use in high altitude livestock grazing systems, as it has good palatibility and above average regrowth rates.[3]
