[QUOTE="dun, post: 1109347, member: 34"] It;s really a regional thing. Here the ideal is a mixture of fescue with clover and lespedeza and enough pasture with a native type WSG to be able to graze it while the fescue is in it's summer slump. For the fescue pastures I also like a little orchard grass, the cows won;t eat it but it gives the critters something to hide in so I can have the enjoyment of watching the hawks hunt them. Along the edges I like brushy stuff (unless it's under a hotwire). A scattering of tall high limbed trees for shade/shelter like 12-18 inch DBH oaks, hickorys and walnuts. Small thickets in the corners for winter shelter, ussualy cedars also helps. [/QUOTE]
