Pawnee
Brand Bermudagrass
(Cynodon
dactylon)
Pawnee
Brand Bermuda is a highly productive, economical
alternative to Coastal Bermudagrass sprigging. This is a specially
formulated blend of hulled Giant and hulled Common bermudagrass
seed. Pawnee is better than pure Giant
bermudagrass stands, because the addition of Common bermudagrass
produces a tighter sod to reduce weed competition.
Adaptation: It
is widely adapted to the southern United States as well as
most temperate, semi-tropical and tropical regions of the
world. Works well on most soil types, including those high
in salinity.
Uses:
Makes high yields of fine-stemmed forage that is excellent
for grazing and hay. Pawnee bermudagrass is great for dairy
cows, horses, sheep, goats, and beef cattle.
Planting Info: Seed
should be planted after all danger of frost has past. Soil
temps. above 65 degrees F is recommended. Also can be planted
in early Fall, as long as there is at least 60 days of good
growth before the first frost. Broadcast seeding on a prepared
seedbed with a light dragging after planting is recommended.
Plant at 4 to 6 pounds per acre. If drilled, plant less than
1/4 inch deep. |
