Climate
Vetiver grass is well-suited for tropical and subtropical climates. It is a hardy plant withstanding frost, drought & floods.
Soil
Vetiver grass is known for its ability to grow in a wide range of soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils.
Sunlight
Vetiver grass thrives in full sunlight. It requires at least six hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth and root development.
Irrigation
While vetiver grass is drought-tolerant once established, it benefits from regular watering during the establishment phase. Adequate moisture is crucial for root development.
Spacing
When planting vetiver for erosion control or soil conservation, the spacing between individual plants is critical. The recommended spacing is 600-800mm to create a tight hedge, prevent erosion & runoff.
Maintenance
Vetiver grass is low-maintenance once established. Regular mowing or trimming can help maintain its height and promote lateral growth.
