CALIFORNIA NATIVE TURF SUBSTITUTE
Native Perennial Turf - A Native Lawn substitute
Once established this is the ultimate low maintenance turf, no-irrigation and once or twice a year mowing. It is a long lived, deep rooted ground cover, that will do all of the landscape functions of an exotic turf grass with out the irrigation required. There are some tradeoffs for this self-sustaining cover - sacrificing some color in the summer when the grasses go dormant. The plants are active in the winter when rain is expected. The ability of carefully selected California Natives to re-grow each fall from dormant crowns makes this cover Greenup faster, more forgiving, with positive protection of the soil from erosion and weeds. It should be planted before the first rains into a finely worked seedbed - may require supplemental irrigation and weed control during the first year to aid establishment.
