Crested Wheatgrass – Waterwise Turf

Certain types of Crested Wheatgrass lend themselves to low maintenance, low water input lawns.  When you have limited water inputs in general it means that the grass grows slowly so it requires less frequent mowings.  Crested Wheatgrass is an introduced bunch grass with a slightly lighter green color as compared to irrigated lawn grasses. This should not be mowed close and would make a poor croquet surface. The seeding rate is 4 pounds per 1000 square feet.
