Elbee is the first cultivar of northern wheatgrass (Agropyron dasystachyum (Hook.) Scribn.), a native species, to be released in Canada. It was developed at the Agriculture Canada Research Station, Lethbridge, Alberta. The main attributes are excellent germination, high seedling vigor and drought tolerance, moderately aggressive creeping root system, early spring growth, and perennial growth habit.
