Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant forms a dense sward with fine leaves that provide a soft texture to the lawn cover. The variety is characterized by rapid rooting and the ability for early spring regrowth at low temperatures.

The variety possesses high resistance to trampling, wear, and the ability to regenerate through active rhizome development. It is characterized by winter hardiness, drought tolerance, adaptation to saline soils, and resistance to rust and other diseases.

Julius is used in grass seed mixtures for sports fields, park areas, and sod production. It has a medium-green color and is suitable for overseeding with perennial ryegrass or tall fescue.
