Description
Medio is an introduced warm-season perennial bunchgrass selected for its outstanding forge quality and yields. It reproduces by self-seeding & spreading rapidly through prostrate stems.

The most limiting factor associated with this grass is that it lacks cold tolerance, which limits its area of adaptation. This grass thrives best on loamy- Clay fertile soils.
