Variety description

10 August 2026

The Home Run LS variety is a specialized lawn variety of Lolium perenne intended for creating high-quality covers on sports fields, golf courses, in parks, and on residential areas. The plant is characterized by rapid establishment and belongs to cool-season crops.

A key feature of the variety is the lateral spread technology, which ensures increased turf density and the ability to recover quickly after intense wear or mechanical damage. The plant has a fine leaf texture with a width of less than 3 mm and possesses a dark green color.

The variety possesses resistance to various diseases and high wear tolerance. It is important to note that this variety is a highly specialized lawn type and is not intended for use as a forage crop for agricultural animals.
