The variety belongs to the turf type and is a cool-season perennial grass. The plant forms a dense sward with a coarse texture. Due to the development of a strong root system, the variety possesses resistance to drought and heat stress.

The tall fescue Sr 8700 is characterized by high wear tolerance, which allows its use in areas with intensive foot traffic, including parks and sports fields.
