Annual Ryegrass

Lolium multiflorum

Plant Description

Annual Ryegrass is a biennial grass, growing up to 1ft, and pollinates through wind dispersal. This grass flowers from May to September often sown in the fall or spring, with a hardiness zone between 4-8, and is often planted with clover. It makes a great seasonal cover crop to add nutrients and stabilization for the soil between cash crop plantings.
