50 Dharini Vetiver Grass Slips , Chrysopogon zizanioide With Phytosanitary certificate and trackable shipping.

Dharini Vetiver is a selected variety of vetiver grass developed for soil conservation, strong root growth and aromatic-root production. It produces long, thick and densely packed roots that grow deep into the soil. These roots hold the soil firmly, reduce erosion and help stabilise slopes, embankments and water channels.

Phytosanitary certification and trackable worldwide shipping are included in the price.

The grass grows in upright clumps and can be planted in rows to create a natural barrier. These thick rows slow rainwater runoff, trap soil and sediment, and allow more water to enter the ground.

Dharini Vetiver can be planted on farms, hill slopes, pond banks, riverbanks, roadsides, construction sites and other areas where soil protection is required. It is also suitable for greywater treatment, landscaping, aromatic-root production and handicrafts.

Limited Fodder Use

Young and tender leaves may be offered to livestock in limited quantities. Mature vetiver leaves become coarse and fibrous, so vetiver should not be considered a primary fodder grass. Plants grown in polluted soil or wastewater-treatment areas must not be used as livestock feed.

Planting Instructions

Plant the rooted slips in moist soil and water them immediately. For an erosion-control hedge, plant the slips approximately 10–15 cm apart in a continuous row. For general cultivation or aromatic-root production, wider spacing can be used.

Keep the soil moist while the slips establish. Once properly established, vetiver is hardy and can tolerate periods of drought as well as temporary waterlogging.
