Mine's coming up in Knox Co. I planted it late, but it germinated well and time will tell. I planted it on the edges of my small plot because I read here that other grasses would not grow in it so I was thinking as a hedge against weeds coming into my plot later on. Who knows, but it does grow and I did nothing special to the plot.
It will grow and do quite well if you add what it needs from a soil sample. It is a pain due to having to spray all the time for bugs. Bugs here will eat it up.
