Ginger Green - high quality evergreen animal fodder. Are you looking to plant a grass once-off, that will allow your animals (cow, sheep, goats, equestrian) to graze whilst not having to replant? This species of grass has been highlighted as one of the most prominent grazing grasses in South Africa. Ginger Green is ideal for grazing as the root system stays firmly in place in the soil, due to a straight shoot growth form allowing grass blades to detach at the base, preventing roots being pulled out by larger animals. We are based in Port Elizabeth and send out orders almost daily to all addresses in South Africa. We also stock a Ginger Green Lawn Seed.

This is one of the most comprehensive publications on Pastures in South Africa. It desribes pasture management as well as all cultivars for dryland and irrigation
