Narrative
First hexaploid cultivar to be released in North America. Characterized by exceptionally broad leaves, and retains forage quality better than other creasted wheatgrasses. Exceptional seed vigor and forage quality during spring and early summer. Excellent winter hardiness, but not as resistant to drought as the Siberian and Standard forms of crested wheatgrass. Excellent seed producer. Recommended for semi-arid range sites with at least 25cm of annual precipitation.
