Successful planting instructions:


Plant on west side of dune


Plant each culm 6-8 inches deep so just 4-5 inches are left sticking out


2 plants per hole (not three or four)


NO straight rows. MUST BE STAGGERED


Push sand around plants after it is planted to hold it in for winter wind


We have a lot of grass. we need planters!


For everyone worried about beach replenishment, grass can grow through even a meter deep of sand. PLANT NOW and it will help PROTECT US!
