Seed Company began producing Native and Introduced grasses in 1987 with the goal of providing top quality products and services to our customers. In the early years of business we devoted our efforts toward growing and planting grass in our local area for livestock forage and conservation needs. Today the focus of Warner Bros. Seed Company is to produce more of the elite varieties of both native and improved warm- season grasses and market them throughout the United States . Our first hand experience has lead us the select the most adaptable, productive and beneficial prairie grass varieties. LITTLE BLUESTEM (Andropogon scoparius) Little bluestem is a vigorous, long lived, native bunchgrass which is widely distributed over most of the United States. It is prevalent in the Great Plains, particularly in the Flint Hill sections of Kansas and Oklahoma, where it supplies dependable grazing and cured forage. This grass is the key component of the true prairie grass mixture. Little bluestem is smaller than big bluestem. The two usually form close association, but little bluestem is more drought-resistant and is adapted to sites that have limited moisture. Little bluestem is easily established on a wide range of soil types. BUFFALO GRASS (Buchloe dactyloides) Buffalograss is a fine-leaved, native, sod-forming, warm-season, perennial. It is the dominant species on the short-grass region of the central Great Plains. Generally, it grows 4 to 8 inches high and produces leaves less than 1/8 inch wide and 3 to 6 inches long. It spreads rapidly by surface runners and forms a dense, matted turf (great for lawns). Growth begins in mid spring and continues through the summer. Provides good grazing for livestock. Its palatability, prevalence, and adaptation to a wide range of soil and climatic conditions make it an important forage species of the Great Plains. Buffalograss withstands long, heavy grazing better than any other native grass on ranges consistently subjected to severe use. It often survives as a nearly pure stand. Because of its excellent ground cover, ability to spread under use, wide climatic adaptation, and relative ease of establishment, Buffalograss is ideally suited for erosion control on range and pasturelands. The seed of the grass is enclosed in hard burs. One or more seeds are in each bur. (For Turf use) Buffalograss is a very drought resistant and low maintenance grass requiring little input cost to maintain (less water, fertilizer, and mowing).
