Rape works well and will be up for season, it only takes a few weeks tocome up, make sure you have a ph test done, You can actually take a soil sample to your Local RiverCounty Coop and they can do it for ya right their, I would do a mix of Rape and something else and it comes up multiple years without replanting, if you see bare spots just replant immediatly and you will be o.k... Be sure to water if possible especially when it is young to help the roots grow deep.. Good luck
