Bromus biebersteinii

Meadow Brome is adapted to the same areas and conditions as Smooth Brome.  Meadow Brome is a long-lived perennial bunchgrass but it will spread somewhat particularly under dryland conditions.  It is not nearly as aggressive as Smooth Brome and so works better in mixes.  Meadow Brome makes excellent hay and is also a very good pasture grass.  Its use in reclamation projects is somewhat limited with preference being given to more aggressive sod forming grasses.
