It normally propagates by means of creepers, giving a good groundcover. Red fescue is relatively slow growing in the sowing year and does not reach its full potential until the second or third year of use. It thrives under a wide range of conditions, but specially in dry, rather poor soil and in fields subject to heavy wear. It has good frost and drought resistance and tolerates surface water during the winter. It is suitable for both conservation and grazing.

It is persistent with strong rhizomes and erect leafy shoots. Growth starts early in the spring and the regrowth consists mainly of leafy material. Poa pratensis is present in all permanent pastures used for grazing. It is common in temperate and relatively moist regions of both northern and southern hemispheres. It tolerates hard wear and because of its rhizomes, it can regenerate itself even if the grass sward is badly damaged. POA PRATENSIS L.

It thrives very well on dry and poor soils due to its very deep rooted system. Growth starts early in spring and heading is also early. It can be mixed with red clover and other tall growing grasses for hay or silage production in a 2 max 3 cut management. Because of a slightly bitter taste it is not fed fresh to stock.
