Species: <br />Slender wheatgrass (Elymus trachycaulus) <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 />
