− | '''Growing Phalaris arundinacea''': Just barely cover seeds or merely press into moist soil. Keep moist and at 41F/5C, if possible—the cooler, the better. It naturally germinates in early spring. Like all wild grasses, the germination of this seed is irregular; not all the seed will germinate at once, as happens with cultivated plants. Transplant to sandy soil and full sun. Once it is established, it grows from creeping rhizomes, which begin developing after a month of growth. It often grows in low-lying and marshy meadows and pastures that flood, but it is moderately drought resistant. It does well in fertile soils and humid areas, but it does not like subtropical or tropical climates.
