Variety description

The variety forms a dense and compact turf. The leaves are characterized as thin and soft, possessing a rich dark green color.

The plant possesses high resistance to high temperatures and drought, and also exhibits immunity to fungal diseases. The presence of endophytes provides natural protection against insect pests and contributes to increased stress tolerance.

The variety is used for landscaping areas requiring durable coverage, and is often included in professional grass mixtures, including those intended for hot climates and sports lawns.
