Growing Tips & Maintenace
- Best grown in a wet to moist soil, in full sun to partial shade. This grass spreads aggressively by rhizomes, up to 60 cm per year, making it a good choice for erosion control. Make sure you have a large site for this grass.
Note
Additional Notes
- Native to Ontario Cool Season Grasses: These grasses do the majority of their growing in early spring and start again when temperatures start to cool in the fall. During the warmer summer months, they stop growing and some will even go dormant. Cool season grasses flower in the spring or early summer. Most cool season grasses grow best in a consistently moist soil. Dried leaves can be made into braids and burned as incense.
