Advice needed. What perennial grass[pasture] is best for frost. I have noticed that if i pile a bunch of rocks loosly together my pasture grows so quick in amongst the rocks in frost but these same grasses are dormant on the paddocks?

Thats because the rocks store heat during the day & slowly release heat during the night. Its got nothing to do with the grass. Most grass will slow down during winter but some less than others. Suggest you go to your closest rural store for advice.
