Overview
Pure fine fescue blend, utilising our sustainable grass technology (SGT) with varieties bred to deliver reduced water, fertiliser and chemical inputs.
Usage
Overseeding, divoting and construction for medium-fine turf on sites with particular drought stress.
Features & benefits
Central to the product is a large proportion of hard fescue, a fine fescue species with well-documented tolerance to drought and heat stress and proven performance with low-input maintenance, as well as good overall turf quality for density and visual merit, helping to maintain good aesthetics in the harshest environments. Hard fescue also offers increased Dollar Spot tolerance and a potential reduction in insect damage. New cultivars of hard fescue Barlegant and Beacon offer unparalleled turf quality parameters for the species in both UK and European trials (BSPB Turfgrass Seed and GEVES Turfgrass List). The mix also includes the new #1 & #2-rated slender creeping red fescues Barnoustie and Barquess for added turf quality and density, and Barrisse, the #1-ranked strong creeping red fescue cultivar for Red Thread tolerance.
