Description

Designed for areas needing quick erosion control. The annual ryegrass germinates quickly, lasting for one year; by then, the clover is mature enough to aid in erosion control until the crownvetch matures. Mix formulations are subject to change without notice depending on the availability of existing and new products. While the formula may change, the guiding philosophy and function of the mix will not.
