Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a dense sward with narrow leaves that have a less saturated dark color compared to other varieties of the species. The plant produces shoots capable of filling gaps in the sward.

The plant possesses high drought tolerance and winter hardiness, and withstands high summer temperatures without leaf browning. It is characterized by excellent resistance to trampling, the ability to withstand low mowing down to 3 cm, and good regeneration with moderate biomass formation.

The variety is intended for use in lawn mixtures, including for surfaces subject to regular trampling.
