20kg Bowling & Golf Green Grass Seed 80/20

Overview

This is a grass seed mixture of 80% fescues and 20% Browntop Bent, creating a dense, fine-leaved sward with good shoot density. Its cultivars were chosen for their high resistance to disease, and because the mix includes species that spread vegetatively by rhizomes, it copes well with close mowing.
