The seed mix shown in Table 3.5 is a recommended low-growing,relatively non-invasive seed <br /> • mix appropriate for very wet areas that are not regulated wetlands. Other mixes may be <br /> appropriate, depending on the soil type and hydrology of the area. Recent research suggests that <br /> • bentgrass(agrostis sp.) should be emphasized in wet-area seed mixes. Apply this mixture at a <br /> • rate of 60 pounds per acre. <br /> • Table 3.5 Wet Area Seed Mix <br /> • % % °/a <br /> • Weight Purity Germination <br /> • Tall or meadow fescue 60-70 98 90 <br /> Festuca arundinacea or Festuca elatior <br /> • Seaside/Creeping bentgrass 10-15 98 85 <br /> • Agrostis palustris <br /> • Meadow foxtail 10-15 90 80 <br /> Alepocurus pratensis• <br /> Alsike clover 1-6 98 90 <br /> • Trifolium hybridum <br /> • Redtop bentgrass 1-6 92 85 <br /> Agrostis alba <br /> • Modified Briargreen,Inc.Hydroseeding Guide Wetlands Seed Mix <br /> • <br /> • 24. The meadow seed mix in Table 3.6 is recommended for areas that will be maintained infrequently <br /> • or not at all and where colonization by native plants is desirable. Likely applications include <br /> rural road and utility right-of-way. Seeding should take place in September or very early October <br /> • in order to obtain adequate establishment prior to the winter months. The appropriateness of <br /> • clover in the mix may need to be considered, as this can be a fairly invasive species. If the soil is <br /> amended, the addition of clover may not be necessary. <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • <br /> • Volume II—Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention <br /> 3-13 <br /> • <br /> • <br />
