Alkaligrass

Puccinellia distans
Cool season, perennial sod-former with a vigorous and shallow fibrous root system. Adapted to moist or periodically moist, saline soils. Able to withstand intermittent flooding and shallow water tables. Moderately palatable. Excellent for establishing cover on saline soils. Also used as a turfgrass. Varieties: One of the most salt tolerant turfgrasses available. Germinates quickly and produces dark green sod. Also used for roadsides or groundcover where high salt content exists. May become dominant in high salt areas. (Released 1979, origin: Boulder, CO)
