Wildrye, Canada
(Elymus canadensis)

Code: ELCA Category: Grass Seeds Tags: Cool Season Grass Seed, Reclamation, U.S. Native, Wildlife

This cool-season bunchgrass can be found throughout Canada and the U.S. except in the southeastern states. It is typically found in prairies, open woods, fields and disturbed sites. It tends to be short-lived but provides quick stabilization for erosion control seedings, and it makes a good, early successional component of prairie mixtures. Provides quality forage for livestock and wildlife.
