Canada Wildrye is a cool-season, perennial grass commonly used for erosion control, land restoration, and providing forage for livestock, as well as food and habitat cover for wildlife. It typically reaches a height of 2.5 to 5 feet and thrives in rocky and sandy soils, making it ideal for challenging landscapes. This adaptable grass can also grow in predominantly shady areas, flourishing along stream banks, fence rows, and in open forests. Its versatility and hardiness make Canada Wildrye a valuable addition to a variety of restoration and conservation projects.
