Cocksfoot Grass Seed

Cocksfoot Grass | Dactylis glomerata

Cocksfoot grass, also known as orchard grass, is a relatively coarse short grass with small dense flower heads.  Slow to establish in its first year, in subsequent years it is a vigorous grower.  It is a deep-rooted species which grows very well in dry sandy soils and is particularly drought-hardy.

Quick to recover from grazing, cocksfoot can be grazed hard.  

It is found widespread in the UK and is attractive to beneficial insects.

Please note that although cocksfoot grows naturally in Britain, this seed is an agricultural variety and may be sourced from trusted growers overseas.
