Reed Foxtail Grass Seeds (Alopecurus arundinaceus) are well-suited for establishing lush growth in moist meadows, lowland pastures, and wetland edges. This cool-season perennial grass is recognized for its tall, cylindrical seed heads and ability to thrive in areas with high soil moisture, making it a reliable option for hay production and erosion control.

Details:

  • Produces flower in yellow tones, blending seamlessly into meadow and field landscapes.
  • Seeds can be sown in either spring or fall, offering flexible planting windows based on your regional climate.
  • Mature plant height typically ranges from 3 to 5 feet but may reach up to 7 feet under optimal conditions.
  • For field planting, rows should be spaced 3 to 4 feet apart to encourage healthy root development and airflow.
  • Blooms appear during June and July, adding texture and vertical interest in early to mid-summer.
  • Seeds are ready for harvest when approximately 75% of the seeds have turned black and 50% of the seed heads begin to shatter at the tips.
  • Suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 2 through 9, offering broad adaptability across a range of environments.
  • Prefers full sun exposure for vigorous growth and strong seed development.
  • Grows best in average to moist soil conditions, making it suitable for lowland areas and damp fields.
