Vantage and Venture. Reed Canarygrass is
a long lived clumpy perennial with coarse rhizomes. It grows
from 4 to 7 feet tall. It is used for pasture, silage, hay and
erosion control. This very versatile grass is also excellent
for stabilizing waterways, healing and controlling gullies and
protecting shorelines of ponds and reservoirs from wave action.
It flowers from June through July. It grows best under cool,
moist conditions, but is adapted to a wide variety of soil moisture
conditions including non-tidal marshes, stream banks, lake shores,
moist woods, and fresh tidal marshes. Establish by seeding 12
to 14 pounds per acre in spring or late summer. |
