Growth Habit and Characteristics

• Aggressive, prostrate, spreading growth habit
• Uniform and dense with dark green color and fine blade width
• Very deep rooted with aggressive rhizomes
• Performs well in a wide range of soil types, pH range of 5.5 - 8.0
• 1800 seeds per gram

 Performance Characteristics/Adaptations

• Outstanding performance in key turf categories such as overall turf quality, color, density, texture, and cold tolerance
• Improved winter survival over most seeded Bermuda grass varieties
• Quick spring green-up
• Excellent performance in heat and humidity; for all areas of Bermuda grass adaptation
• Very low water use with excellent drought tolerance
• Very good traffic tolerance and recovery
• Moderately good salt tolerance
• Adapted to full sun

Establishment and Maintenance

• For hulled seed at 10 - 15 gr/m², coated seed at 20 - 25 gr/m²
• Best planted spring through mid-summer; fall plantings not recommended
• Seedbed should be kept moist during germination and early establishment
• Germinates in 10 - 14 days with optimal soil temperatures, 18° - 24° C
  Do not plant with soil temperatures below 15° C
• Full coverage in approximately 8 weeks.
• For quick coverage and density, provide optimal irrigation, early weed control, frequent light applications of nitrogen, and frequent low mowing
• First mowing recommended when turf reaches approximately 5 cm in height

 Established Turf Maintenance

• For best performance, fertilize at 2 - 5 g/m² of nitrogen per growing month
• Deep, infrequent irrigations are best throughout the growing season
• Recommended mowing height of 0.5 – 2.5 cm
• For best turf quality, renovation, aeration, and topdressing are recommended during the active growing season; in climates with cold winters, summer renovation is best; allow time for full recovery prior to onset of cooler temperatures
• For winter color, overseed with improved perennial ryegrass at 50 - 75 gr/m²

• 100% Bermuda grass blend
