APPLICATION RATE: 5 lbs per 1,000 sq. ft. (ex. if you have 10,000 sq ft to seed, purchase a 50 lb bag) When seeding new lawn and/or overseeding existing lawn, use with starter fertilizer.

WHEN TO APPLY: Spring and fall, between 60 degree F and 80 degree F, are the best times to seed, but can be used anytime during the growing season, applicable to your region. Grass seed germinates when soil temperatures are consistently above 50 degree F. This roughly corresponds to daytime air temperatures between 60 degree F and 75 degree F. If grass seed is applied in fall, any ungerminated grass seeds will remain dormant throughout winter, then germinate when soil temperatures reach 50 degree F in spring.

GERMINATION TIME: Perennial Ryegrass will germinate between 5-7 days. Grass seed will continue to thicken throughout growing season.

NOTE: Any purchase smaller than 50 lbs will be repackaged into a resealable bag.

Expected blooming period: Spring to Fall

To get the best color from this ornamental grass, plant in full to partial sun. Carex testacea is outstanding when planted with silver foliage plants, brightly colored flowers or variegated grasses.

Seeding Rate: 3 seeds per plant. They are excellent used to give color, texture and movement in the perennial garden, for show-stopping block planting, or even as a feature plant in a container.

This ornamental grass grows best in full to partial sun and in rich soil with regular watering. Add this ornamental grass to a flower garden, rock garden, or containers. Uncinia seeds have an irregular germination, often taking several months.

Sowing Rate: 3 - 4 seeds per plant. A cold, moist treatment prior to sowing is very beneficial. Many gardeners will start the seeds in the late fall using a cold frame outdoors so that the seeds can experience the temperature fluctuations.

Use. Ornamental grasses grow very quickly, usually reaching their mature size in two seasons. Their fast growth rate makes them ideal for privacy hedges because new plants can rapidly fill in any gaps.

Sun. Full sun is ideal for this grass, though it can grow in partial sun as well.

EXPECTED BLOOMING PERIOD: Bloom in Summer, fall.

PLANTING SUGGESTIONS: Providing or withholding fertilizer will not make or break these fast-growing grasses. If you wish, add a well-balanced fertilizer after pruning in the late winter or early spring to encourage new growth.
