How do I grow this grass from seed?
Generally, grasses are not difficult to grow from seed. Sow the seeds indoors in late February to early April and keep them around 18 to 21 °C. Grow on in a cooler condition to prevent rapid growth. You can also direct sow or start seeds in a greenhouse from March to May.
Late summer and autumn sowings germinate rapidly if sown in a greenhouse. Overwinter seedlings in pots and plant out in early spring. If spring germination was not successful for you, I’d suggest you try second sowing in autumn.
