Perennial Ryegrass

Perennial rye grass has a medium-coarse texture. It grows well in a wide variety of climates and is a popular choice for over-seeding warm season grasses. Perennial rye can be planted by itself but is best suited for over-seeding projects. Leaf undersides are shiny and smooth. In colder regions, perennial rye is often blended with Kentucky bluegrass. Perennial ryegrass is a much more attractive grass compared to it’s cousin annual ryegrass.

The perennial variety of rye can be mowed as low as ¼-inch with special care. With most rotary-type mowers, mow 1 ½-inches to 2 ½-inches.
