RC Big Rock Switchgrass is a perennial, warm season native grass that grows to heights of 6'-8' feet tall on average but can reach heights of 8'+ in high nutritional soils. RC Big Rock Switchgrass is the tallest upland switchgrass released to date. It takes 2-3 years to reach mature height. It is highly adaptable to a wide range of soils and growing conditions. RC Big Rock is genetically improved for ease of establishment, upright growth habit and increased height, making it an ideal choice for high quality habitat for deer. Large seed variety selected for reduced seed dormancy, increased seed weight and increased seedling vigor. Can be frost seeded but may be risky on sandy soil. Excellent winter hardiness for a late season variety. It grows well on diverse soil types and has a wide regional adaptation to states in the mid-west and northeast regions.
