Annual Ryegrass Seed
McKay’s Annual Ryegrass as the name suggests is a 1 year proposition that provides excellent quality autumn, winter and early spring growth. The forage quality drops in late spring with the onset of seed head emergence, and plants are usually dead by summer.
It is often used to overseed warm season lawn grasses (Buffalo, Couch, Zoysia, Kikuyu QLD Blue) to provide a green, economical grass cover from Autumn to Spring. Other use include weed suppression and temporary erosion control,.
Annual rye grass is an easy to establish grass and with sufficient moisture seeds will even germinate when broadcast on top of established lawns or pastures.
