Combining the best characteristics of wheat and wheatgrass, Regreen is an effective aid during the re-establishment of native plant communities. A highly versatile temporary cover crop, this hybrid produces sterile seeds. After it completes its life cycle, it is programmed to vacate the site and allow other vegetation to develop free from the competition of a new generation of plants. In California, Regreen is planted before and through winter moisture periods and may be sown before snow cover at higher elevations. Large-seeded, Regreen germinates quickly and forms a dense, fibrous root system stabilizing the soil surface and providing the anchor for vigorous seedlings. A deep root system also allows the plant to be drought tolerant, winter hardy and adaptable to varying soil and moisture conditions. With characteristics from both parents, wheat and wheatgrass, Regreen is ideal for aiding in the establishment of important native plant communities. This long-lived annual plant will grow in a variety of soil types and environmental conditions. If your objective calls for quick cover and longterm establishment, Regreen may be your best alternative!
