Narrative

Cool-season, mildly rhizomatous perennial forage grass. Regrowth following clipping is rapid, similar to Fleet, Paddock and Regar. Leaf dimensions, degree of leaf pubescence, rate of phonological development, culm length and seed characteristics are similar to Fleet. Similar plant height to Fleet, and taller than Regar prior to seed maturity. Tolerates intensive fall clipping better than Regar or adapted cvs. of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata). Forage yields in multi-year trials across Montana of 102, 102 and 104% of Fleet, Paddock, and Regar, respectively. Across dryland sites, 10% higher forage yields than Regar. Excellent seed production potential. Across 3 locations, produced 134% higher seed yields than Regar. Adapted to cool, moist (or irrigated) areas in the intermountain western U.S. Useful as a single species for permanent pastures, or in grain-legume mixtures for grazing or hay production.
