Sheep Fescue is a cool season, native bunch grass adapted to central and northern latitudes of the U.S. This blue-green colored grass likes moist soils and does well in sandy or gravel soil types. It can be used as a cover crop with other native grass and wildflower plantings, erosion control, landscaping, or high elevation pasture. Use 10-15 PLS Lbs./Ac for a cover crop with native grass plantings.
