Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the chewings fescue group. It is characterized by the presence of fine leaves and high shoot density, due to which the turf is able to effectively resist the spread of moss.

The variety shows good resistance to Microdochium patch (snow mold) in northern climate conditions. It is intended for use in professional seed mixtures for park areas, golf courses, and other sports facilities where tolerance to low mowing is important.
