Plants mostly densely caespitose, but sometimes developing short rhizomes or stolons. Leaf blades bluish, usually slightly waxy, rarely more than 10 cm long, very fine (0.3 mm diam. or less); ligule up to 2 mm long. Spikelets 2.8–4.3 mm long. Flowers Nov.–Mar.
Wim, CVU, NIS, EGL, EGU, HSF, HNF, MonT, VAlp. Also NSW, ACT. Apparently confined in Victoria to elevated sites in the east with an isolated occurrence at Mt Useful near Aberfeldy.
On Mt Tingaringy, a population occurs which although referable to Poa sieberiana var. cyanophylla, has the ligule longer and the lemma more nearly glabrous; this suggests P. hookeri Vickery which also occurs on that mount.
