Our Cave-in-Rock switchgrass is a very popular option for screen, creating corridors and providing habitat. Switchgrass often achieves heights of 4 to 6 feet once fully established.
 
Switchgrass is very popular because it tends to be the easiest of the native grasses to establish. It is often possible to have a solid stand in under 18 months, whereas many other species take two years or more.
 
Switchgrass should not be mowed, but if weeds or other issues are needing managed it can be burnt after the first year.
 
Can be seeded with other native species at 2 to 3 pounds per acre.
 
Seed 6 to 8 pounds per acre or 2 to 3 pounds in a mix. Seed while soil temps are dormant from Dec - March if broadcasting, or drill in March - May. 
 
Pricing is listed for live seed. So for 2 pounds of live seed, you may receive 2.8 or so pounds once we account for the purity and germination! Variety and purity vary throughout the year, so if you would like more info regarding the lot on hand, please send a message!
