[null,null,"Introduced cool-season grasses (CSGs) grow best when air and soil temperatures are cooler (spring and fall), and typically go dormant in especially hot or cold conditions.  CSGs include common forage grasses like timothy, orchardgrass, and Kentucky bluegrass.  These grasses grow leaves and other above-ground structures very quickly, and form dense sod; as a result they are excellent for quick erosion control and improving water quality.  Unmowed CSG's provide excellent nesting and foraging habitat for wildlife in spring, summer, and fall; however, their winter habitat value is low, since even modest amounts of snowfall cover them easily."]

[null,null,"Description:"]
[null,null,"Introduced cool-season grasses (CSGs) grow best when air and soil temperatures are cooler (spring and fall), and typically go dormant in especially hot or cold conditions.  CSGs include common forage grasses like timothy, orchardgrass, and Kentucky bluegrass.  These grasses grow leaves and other above-ground structures very quickly, and form dense sod; as a result they are excellent for quick erosion control and improving water quality.  Unmowed CSGs provide excellent nesting and foraging habitat for wildlife in spring, summer, and fall; however, their winter habitat value is low, since even modest amounts of snowfall cover them easily."]
