AB  - A selected germplasm of plains lovegrass (Eragrostis intermedia A.S. Hitchc. [Poaceae]) has been released for use in southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico. Bonita Germplasm plains lovegrass is a native, warm-season perennial bunchgrass. It is an important early spring forage grass and responds quickly after fire. Therefore, it has high potential for use for restoration of disturbed areas, wildlife habitat improvement, and increasing plant diversity.
