A powerful reclamation grass, Galleta's vigorous, spreading roots & rhizomes resprout even when repeatedly trampled. Use for difficult areas of erosion or heavy traffic (dog runs & playing fields), in meadows & lawns, although its curly, stiff leaf blades do not resemble standard turf grasses. Allow 1-2 years establishment time before heavy use.Water increases height. In lawn settings, water only moderately. This warm season, perennial grass to 2 ft. withstands the cold winters, the wind & low moisture. Seed is light, so cover carefully; binder helps. Seeding rate: 4 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. Reclamation: 20 lbs. per acre.
