Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety belongs to the Chewings fescue subspecies (Festuca rubra ssp. commutata). It is a non-creeping type of grass that forms dense tufts without long underground rhizomes.

The plant is distinguished by its low growth habit and thin, dark-colored leaves. The variety possesses high adaptability to various soil types, from moist to moderately drained.

Due to its ability to form a dense turf resistant to frequent low mowing, Jamestown is widely used in lawn seed mixtures for sports facilities and golf courses.
