Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is classified as an old breeding form, historically used in grass mixtures for park areas, sports grounds, and general-purpose lawns. Studies were also conducted on the use of this fescue as pasture feed, including in combination with white clover.

Morphological and agronomic characteristics in the form of a standardized description are absent. Scientific data indicate the variety's sensitivity to high concentrations of zinc, which affect root system development. Under modern conditions, the variety is not included in breeding achievement registries and is of interest as a historical specimen of grass breeding.
