Creeping Foxtail is a perennial cool season grass that spreads by seed and rhizomes. The most common variety, Garrison, was selected from plants in North Dakota, but will perform in most Midwest states. With high palatability and high protein content, Creeping Foxtail was likely introduced by homesteaders from eastern Germany or western Russia for pasture or hay use on wet sites.
Creeping Foxtail will tolerate spring inundation and is not drought tolerant. It can be found in wet prairies, floodplains, and drainage areas in full sun, but it can be aggressive in areas that are too wet for other grasses to compete.
Uses include:
- Wildlife habitat
- Wildlife food plots
- Forage for livestock
