Good Grass for Dey or Semi Arid Districts
Sky-Having been an experimentalist for many years past with various grasses and fodder plants, I extol native Rhodes Grass Chloris barbata var decor a as a rapid grower and fodder rich. It reaches three to four feet, stays green when others dry, and makes palatable hay when cut before seeding. Reports from Queensland praise its drought tolerance and adaptability to clay wind-swept sun-scorched soils, likely to succeed under lighter rainfall. seed is light and wind-dispersed.
