Grass Seed

RC Big Rock is a new late season variety of upland switchgrass developed from Cave-in-Rock. Its distinct traits include tall height and high yield potential. Its tall height provides a high-quality habitat for deer and it is an excellent food source for pheasants and quail. It has a noteworthy winter haridiness as it is a late-season switchgrass with approximately 9 days later maturity than Cave-in-rock.

Once established, most of the species in this mix can handle occasional droughts as well.
