Uses: Bicolor lespedeza is a perennial shrub that can grow from 6 to 10 feet high. As a legume, it supplies its own nitrogen. The abundant seed produced is attractive to quail and other game birds and can remain in the soil for long periods without rotting because of its hardseed coat. The shrub makes an excellent food and cover for birds. Many landowners use it for a border or in hedge rows for funneling animals through corridors or creating dense screens so motorists cannot see into fields from the road.
Planting Date: April - June
Rate: 15 lbs./acre or 1/2 lb./1000 sq.ft.
Depth: 1/3" maximum
Best For: Deer, Turkey, Dove, Pheasant, Rabbit and Quail
