For Shallow Water and Marsh 
GIANT WILD RICE 
Where Wild Rice grows you 
find Mallards, Black Ducks, 
Widgecns, Teal, Pintails, Can- 
ada Geese and other wildfowl 
swarming in to feed. Wild Rice 
beds are used by ducks as a 
place to hide their nests and 
rear their ducklings. Either seed 
or plants produce both food and 
cover in one growing season. 
WHERE TO PLANT 
Terrell’s Giant Wild Rice is easy to grow. Con- 
ditions required for successful growth of Wild 
Rice are fresh water streams, lakes or ponds 
having an outlet, fairly rich bottom, and water 
from 6 inches to 3 feet in depth. Sunny, sheltered 
bays or coves where planting will not get the full 
current or direct wash of waves, suit it best. 
It grows best north of a line drawn from Savan- 
nah, Georgia, to San Francisco, California, al- 
though occasionally grown further south.
