THAN 1 INCH Weeping Lovegrass is a warm-season, perennial, bunchgrass with a shallow fibrous root system, growing to a height of 4 feet. It responds well to nitrogen and phosphate fertilization, producing good, palatable forage during early spring and fall.
Proper management is very important.
It insures maximum productivity, and reduces susceptibility to winter kill. The two dominant varieties of Weeping Lovegrass are Ermelo and Morpa. Ermelo is a long lived strain that responds well to heavy grazing, with regular rotation. It is an improved variety of Common Lovegrass, requiring similar management and planting. Certified Morpa is equal to or surpasses Common Weeping Lovegrass in all respects, except it is being slightly less winter-hardy.
