Buffalo Grass Seed

Texoca Buffalo Grass, scientific name Buchloe Dactyloides, is a fine-textured grass forming a dense light green turf that will last from spring all the way into fall without watering. It doesn't need to be mowed and will form a thick sod that keeps weeds out after the first year, ensuring your lawn maintains its hardy, colorful look. It is a fine-leaved, native, warm-season perennial grass. It is the dominant species on the short-grass region of the central Great Plains. Generally, it grows 4 to 8 inches high and produces leaves less than 1/8 inch wide and 3 - 6 inches long. Growth begins in mid spring and continues through the summer. Buffalo Grass provides good grazing for livestock. Its palatability, prevalence, and adaptation to a wide range of soil and climatic conditions make it an important forage species of the Great Plains. Buffalograss is ideally suited for erosion control on range and pasture lands. Planting Date: April - May Planting Rate: 3 lbs/ 1,000 sq ft Depth: 1/4" to 1/2" Buffalograss Grass Plant Guide
