Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is intended for creating lawns on sports fields, in parks and on home plots, as well as for sod production. It is often used in mixtures with Kentucky bluegrass or perennial ryegrass. It is characterized by rapid seed germination, which takes from 7 to 10 days under favorable conditions.

The plant has a dark green color and fine leaf texture. Due to the presence of rhizomes, the variety belongs to the SRP category, which ensures good wear tolerance and accelerated recovery of the stand after mechanical damage. The variety demonstrates resistance to drought, shade, and brown patch.

The recommended mowing height varies from 3.8 to 10 cm for sports fields and general-purpose lawns.
