Switchgrass
Pending NPSOT reviewDeep-rooted and forgiving on the floodplain. Seed benefits from after-ripening — a season in the bag sharply improves germination. We favor a regional ecotype over the tall biomass cultivars.
StatusA working first pass, being reconciled against NPSOT and USDA PLANTS. Corrections welcome through the repository.
