The adaptability of this cool season grass to many soils and climates, coupled with fast germination and prolific growing rates, make annual ryegrass an important grass type in establishing thousands of lawns and pastures in all but the hottest of planting zones. Exceptionally useful as a fill-in grass when planted with slower growing permanent lawns. Its uses are many, including temporary pastures, green manure, temporary coverage for erosion control, short term use on reclamation sites, parks, new lawns, and along highway shoulders. May be seeded with other grass mixtures, legumes, clovers and small grains. Fast germinating, quick growing and requires low to medium fertilization.
