These grasses thrive in cool mountain areas with late frosts in spring and early frosts in fall. This grass seed mix is formulated to withstand drought, will provide habitat for songbirds and beneficial insects, and be a source of natural beauty with its ornamental seed heads in late summer and fall.

Description

The High Mountain Grass Seed Mix is a resilient mix of small to medium-height grasses designed for use in high elevation areas (from 7,500 to around 9,000 ft. in the southern parts of the Intermountain states and above approximately 6,000 to around 8,000 ft. in the northern part of the Intermountain area). This expertly formulated blend of cool-season grasses thrive in cool mountain areas and is formulated to withstand drought, provide habitat and be a source of natural beauty in late summer and fall.

The season for sowing the High Mountain mix begins after snow melts and extends into late July/early August. The higher the elevation, the sooner in summer the mix should be sown.

Best times to seed are either early spring or during summer monsoons, even into late fall. These species grow well in a wide range of soil types; from sandy to loam to heavy clay.

Seeding rate is 1-2 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. Germination will depend on the amount of moisture present, either by natural precipitation or through supplemental irrigation. These grasses will need two seasons in order to firmly establish. Wildflowers may be added for a splash of color; use 1 ounce of High Country Meadow Mix for every 1 lb. of grass seed.

This Mix Is Comprised Of The Following Grasses:

Blue grama (Bouteloua gracilis)

Arizona fescue (Festuca arizonica)

Smooth Bromegrass

Slender Wheatgrass (Elymus trachycaulus)

Bottlebrush Squirreltail

Forage Tall Fescue

Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne)
