Features & Benefits Red fescue contributes to 80% of the mixture and is made up of both slender creeping red fescue and Chewings red fescue. The combination of these two sub-species offers the best solution for year-round performance and growth in fescue-dominant turf. Includes the highly rated Chewings red fescues, Bodega and Barlineus, slender creeping red fescues, Barcrown and Viktorka, combined with the top-rated browntop bentgrass on the market, Charles, with a mean score of 7.6*, and BarKing with exceptional Microdochium Patch disease (Fusarium) tolerance and superior winter colour. Chewings fescues will generally be most active in spring through to mid-summer, whereas slender creepers “kick- in” during early summer and perform to autumn.
