Plant ornamental grass seeds in the Fall?

Question

I live in Zone 5 or 6. Can I sucessfully plant ornamental grass seeds in the Fall? If so, what do you recommend? Thank you!

Answer 1

Fall is the best time for almost all grasses, so long as you still have 4 weeks before first frost and it's a perennial grass. Spring is bad since most people in zones 5 and 6 want to put down pre-emergent crabgrass granuals, which stop the seeds from germinating.

Answer 2

yes, put hey over it!
