Redgum/Sandy Loam Perennial Persistence Blend
A good indication this mix will persist is in areas where Redgum trees are in abundance. This mix should provide strong growth in a dryland environment over a long period of time. The grasses will become the backbone of your pasture while the sub clover will help finish your stock. Perennial ryegrasses in our district over the past few years have struggled to persist due to the dry/hot spring and summers we have been experiencing. Some of the new generation perennial ryegrass varieties are showing some persistence, but need to be well managed through the summer months.
