Creeping Bentgrass Blend
Description
Creeping Bentgrass seed is a cool-season, fine textured, stoloniferous (spreading) perennial grass that originated in Western Europe. It is well adapted to cool, humid regions. Bentgrass seed is the primary cool-season grass for use on golf course, putting greens and tees. Dominant Plus Creeping Bentgrass Blend is a reliable blend of beauty, functionality and durability for greens, tees and fairways. Dominant Plus combines three bentgrass seed varieties selected for moderate maintenance requirements. Dominant Plus has broad genetic diversity, superior adaptability and proven performance. Planting a blend of these advanced bentgrass seed varieties will significantly improve the quality of any turf stand.
Dominant Plus combines selected versatile varieties to create a turf with a broad genetic base. This broad base will provide a sur-face with increased resistance to Brown Patch, Dollar Sport, Pythium, and most environmental stresses. All are vigorous, fine textured with medium high shoot densities, and have a dark green color. This results in a surface that is easier to maintain and keep in ideal conditions without the high intensity maintenance of other varieties.
