10 C C L L O O V V E E R R A A N N D D F F O O R R A A G G E E G G R R A A S S S Phleum pratense L. - Timothy - Wiesenlieschgras - Fléole des prés - Fleo This specie is normally found growing wild on fertile soils and under good moist conditions. It is a persistent grass, which seldom suffers from frost damage. It can tolerate high summer temperatures if moisture is available but is best suited for cultivation in areas with temperate climatic conditions including low-lying wet land. Timothy starts growing early in the spring and offers good production in the autumn. Early types are mainly for conservation with a high first cut whereas the late types have a prolonged growth over the summer and are well suited to grazing. PHLEUM PRATENSE L.

It grows relatively slowly in the year of sowing but in the second and subsequent years it is very aggressive. Cocksfoot starts growing early in the spring and regrowth after cutting consists mostly of leafy palatable shoots. Growth in summertime is important. Cocksfoot is grown under varying climatic conditions. It is winter hardy and drought tolerant. Early types are mainly used for conservation. Late types are excellent for grazing.

Due to its large, deep rooted system it is able to take up water in very dry periods. Therefore it can tolerate high temperatures and stay green in a dry summer period where production is maintained unlike many other species which have ceased growing. New <strong>varieties</strong> have softer leaves and improved digestibility. Tall fescues provide good winter growth compared to other species in mild winters. FESTUCA ARUNDINACEA L.
