H. obtusa, also known as “vine mesquite,” is a perennial grass that provides excellent ground cover, as it spreads by stolons. It can grow up to 3 ft. tall and flowers between May-October. This grass grows in seasonally moist areas and disturbed landscapes, such as low pastures, ditches, stream sides, and roadsides. It prefers elevations between 1,000–6,000 ft. An excellent substitute for Bermuda grass in lawns near floodplain areas, and an excellent competitor with non-native invasive species.
This seed was ethically wild harvested or farmed in Southern Arizona. Seeds may have substandard germination rates due to natural seed dormancy. For growing tips, refer to our catalog.
