Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the continental type of tall fescue. It is characterized by a moderately fine leaf texture and dense growth. Due to its slow vertical development, the variety allows for a reduction in mowing frequency and possesses good seed germination energy.

The plant has high resistance to heat, drought, and mechanical wear. The variety is endophyte-enhanced, containing over 70% Neotyphodium coenophialum endophytes, which provides protection against pests and nematodes, as well as resistance to brown rust.

The variety is recommended for establishing turf on commercial sites, in parks, on golf courses, and for sod production. It is frequently used in seed mixtures for areas with varying levels of light exposure.
