Hachita Blue Grama

Hachita Blue Grama is a native, warm season bunchgrass grass that is 6”-2’ tall at maturity. It is very drought resistant and cures well on the ground, making it a highly productive livestock forage grass. It is very palatable to livestock in all seasons, and also provides good cover to grassland wildlife. It also works well for restoration, mining reclamation, native lawns, landscaping and right-of-way stabilization.

Hachita Blue Grama was developed by the USDA NRCS Las Lunas Plant Materials Center from native plants collected near Hachita New Mexico in 1957. Hachita is generally thought to be more drought resistant than other varieties of blue grama. It is well adapted to a variety of soils ranging from sand to gravelly loams. Hachita has been shown to have greater seedling vigor than other types of blue grama, making it well suited for establishing grass cover on extremely arid planting sites such as roadsides.
