Forage value and reproduction: Al- though palatable to all stock when young, bluejoint grows in habitats too wet for sheep until the herbage has become tough and undesirable. Cattle and horses graze the leafage throughout the season, but leave the coarse flower stalks. The spe- cies is considered good elk feed and is grazed lightly by deer (10). A good seed crop of high viability ripens in August or September. Stands are bountifully re- produced by both seeds and rhizomes. [94].
