Buffalo Grass Seed (lb)

Buffalo Grass Seed (lb)

Drought Tolerant Lawn or Pasture Seed

Buchloe dactyloides Texoka variety Low-growing warm-season prairie native

This sod-forming grass is well-suited for lawns and meadows in arid regions with a minimum rainfall of 12". Provides good erosion control on ranges and pastures which do not contain much sand. Spreads by seed and surface runners which root as they go, stabilizing the soil. Can be closely grazed (1"-3") and is palatable to all classes of livestock, except when dormant. As a lawn, it is slow-growing but almost indestructible once established.

  • Application Rate: Lawns - 3-4 lb/1000 sq ft. For pasture, the rate is 8-10 lb/acre
  • Inoculant: None needed
  • Germination: 7-30 Days
  • Plant Height: 5"
  • Days to Maturity: 3-4 months
  • Uses: Erosion control, lawns, pasture
  • Facts to Note: Tolerates drought, cold winter, poor soil, traffic, and remains pest and disease-free if not over-watered or over-fertilized. Turns brown from early fall to late spring. For winter green-up, interplant with Blue Wildrye. Seed comes treated with potassium nitrate to help germination. For best results, plant in summer with irrigation until established.
