Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety forms a dense, compact turf with a fine-leaf texture and a rich dark green color. An aggressive growth type and development via rhizomes ensure sod strength and the ability for rapid recovery.

The plant possesses high winter hardiness, drought tolerance, and increased shade tolerance, maintaining color during the winter period. The variety is adapted to moderate fertility levels and allows for low mowing, which makes it suitable for use on sports fields, golf courses, and in professional landscape design.
