Species: <br /> Slender wheatgrass (Eiymus trachycau/us) <br /> Cool season, saline tolerant, short-lived, perennial bunchgrass <br /> with very short rhizomes. Adapted to a wide range of sites and <br /> is moderately drought tolerant. Establishes easily and quickly. <br /> Good palatability to both livestock and wildlife. <br /> Smooth brome (Bromus inermis) <br /> Cool season, moderately drought tolerant, long-lived <br /> vigorous sod-former. Adapted to deep soils. Very <br /> productive; starts growth in early spring, ripens by early <br /> summer and produces abundant late-summer and fall <br /> regrowth. Highly palatable to livestock when green, fair <br /> palatability to wildlife. <br /> Pubescent wheatgrass (Agropyron trichophorum) <br /> Cool season, robust, drought tolerant, strongly rhizomatous, <br /> long-lived sod-forming grass. Similar to E. intermedia spp. <br /> intermedia but more tolerant of drought, lower soil fertility, <br /> higher alkalinity and higher elevations. <br /> Intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium) <br /> Cool season, robust, moderately drought tolerant sod-former, <br /> 2 to 4 ft. tall. Adapted to a wide variety of sites but does best <br /> on medium to fine textured soils. Generally good palatability <br /> to livestock and wildlife. <br /> Horizon Environmental Services, inc. <br />
