Richmond Timothy is an early season, high yielding forage variety. It is one of the most winter-hardy cool season forage grasses on the market and is generally adapted to temperate, moist environments. It has a long period of spring growth before flowering and will continue to produce vegetative and reproductive tillers following initial heading and harvest. Richmond Timothy develops long seed heads and medium-wide leaves which make it a favourite variety for hay growers concentrating on producing high end horse hay.
