Discover the robust and versatile Alopecurus arundinaceus, also known as Creeping Meadow Foxtail. This cool-season grass stands 3-4ft tall and is medium to long-lived, making it a reliable and long-term element in your landscape. With its dense sod-forming and rhizomatous characteristics, it is adaptable to most soil textures, provided they have sufficient moisture. This makes it perfect for wetland meadow sites. Beneficially, Creeping Meadow Foxtail is cold and acid-tolerant and shows moderate tolerance to salt, making it a tough contestant against elements. As it retains its rich green color well into the fall, it is not only attractive but also highly palatable. This versatile grass fits well in both wet and dry meadows, from valley bottoms to elevations in sub-alpine zones, covering pond and lake shorelines and waterways. It requires a minimum precipitation of 20-25 inches, and it's best to plant it ¼-½ inches deep, either in the fall or spring. Need for restoration? This species is perfect, especially where wildlife is desired. It offers valuable seed, forage, and cover to wildlife and domestic animals. It's also brilliantly adapted for moist or periodically damp soils on meadows, waterways, or ranges in the subalpine zone while tolerating acidic and salty soils. It's frequently chosen as a pasture grass on wet meadows due to its high palatability and nutritional value.
