Festuca perennis seed

LATIN NAME: FESTUCA PERENNIS

COMMON NAME: Perennial Ryegrass

The perennial ryegrass swards the dense, tufted grass with the bright-green, narrow leaves and the slender, upright panicles that open through the early summer, the whole plant forming the thick, fine-textured sward. The grass grows fast and fills in quickly, and it keeps the green through the cool season. It stands the treading and the close cutting well. It likes the sun or the part shade, and the moist, well-drained soil.

Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology

In the grass family, the ryegrasses have a long, fast record in the studies of the cool-season turf, and the perennis species appears in the research on the sward formation and the regrowth after the cutting. The turf scientists value the quick establishment, while the agronomists note the palatable grazing. The seed biology fills out the picture, and the growers of the lawns and the pasture mixes keep the species in their catalogues.

Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

In the lawn and the pasture, the perennial ryegrass swards the ground with the bright green. The dense, fine sward makes the hard-wearing lawns and the sports fields, it feeds the grazing stock well, and it holds the soil on the banks. It stands the treading and the close cutting and grows in the moist, well-drained ground. Fast, dense and hard-wearing.

To grow the Perennial Ryegrass from seed,

Scatter the seeds over the fine, moist surface of the open bed, then press them in gently, keep the bed moist, and the seedlings show themselves within a week or two

Keep the bed gently watered, and let the young grass fill the ground. The dense sward comes within the season.

. Settle the young sward in the moist, well-drained ground, and the dense green will cover the lawn over the season.
