Plant height — Festuca rubra
Festuca rubra L.
The stem height of Festuca rubra ranges from 20 to 80 cm depending on the cultivar type, varying significantly between turf and forage forms.
In the reference 86 varieties crop Red fescue, where this is mentioned in the description.
The morphological trait of height in Festuca rubra is crucial for cultivar classification. Turf types are characterized by low above-ground productivity and a slow growth rate, whereas forage cultivars possess taller stems, which correlates directly with their green mass yield potential.
In agronomic practice, plant height is measured in centimeters using measuring rods or remote sensing methods. Assessment is conducted taking into account the crop's development phase, as Festuca reaches full biological development only in the second or third year of life.
Plant height determines cultivation technology, including lodging resistance in seed stands and the selection of mowing regimes. For maintaining a turf sward, an optimal mowing height is considered to be 4–5 cm; however, the species tolerates low mowing below 2.5–3 cm poorly.
