QuickGuard' Sterile Triticale

Sterile, Cool season drought tolerant annual grass. Comprises all the attributes of common Triticale (see below), but is non-reseeding and does not persist in subsequent years. Will not produce seed unless it is exposed to pollen from Wheat (T. aestivum) or non-sterile varieties of triticale. Intended for short-term soil stabilization on non-agricultural erosion control projects in semi-arid regions of the western US. Use alone or as a nurse plant with slower establishing perennials in mining reclamation, road development, new construction and following soil disturbance. Germinates in Cool environments. Suitable for use in fall or spring.
