Description
Glycine, a trailing and climbing legume, is a deep-rooting perennial plant, producing long, slender, branched stems that root down at the nodes.
It is suited to well drained, heavier, more fertile soils in cooler regions of the sub-tropics.
It is more drought tolerant than Centro or Desmodium but cannot tolerate very acidic soils or waterlogging.
Glycine also has a higher demand for nutrients than other tropical legumes.
It combines well with tall grasses such as panic grass, Guinea grass or Setaria.
Tinaroo is a semi-erect variety that is slower to establish than Cooper and flowers around 4-6 weeks later.
This variety grows well on scrub soils of south eastern QLD.
Tinaroo gives the best autumn-early winter growth as it flowers very late (mid-June).
It is therefore used in more humid areas with a longer growing season.
It has soft, thin leaves, which are bright green, distinctly different in appearance to Cooper.
