American Beachgrass

SKU:
$35.00
$35.00
Unavailable
per item

Light: full sun

Soil: sandy

Coverage: each bundle includes 100 stems (also called plugs).

Height: plugs are about 30” tall. 

Perennial.


Also called dunegrass, American beachgrass has strong underground rhizomes that provide excellent, natural erosion control on or near shorelines. It prefers well-drained sites but is very tolerant of high water levels. 


How to plant: as a general rule of thumb, plant each plug 

6” - 8” deep, one per hole in a 6” up to 12” square grid. If you are planting beachgrass on a slope or very windy area, plant the plugs closer together (about 6” apart).


Beachgrass is a seedling sale exclusive item. Please see our seedling sale page for pickup times and location.
