Outstanding tolerance to and recovery from disease

Oversowing golf and bowling greens, tees, fairways, bunker faces and surrounds.

Ultimate golf greens mixture for the sustainable golf maintenance implications of the future.

Excellent for oversowing take-all patch scars and for improving drought tolerance and sward density. The cultivars in the mixture also combine to offer outstanding resistance to red thread and fusarium.

This extremely fine mixture is ideally suited to Links golf courses and to bowling clubs with little or no irrigation and low fertiliser inputs.

Also excellent for improving sward density and drought tolerance from tee to green. A key benefit is its suitability for overseeding areas where take-all patch (Gaeumannomyces graminis) has attacked the bent grasses in the sward.

Furthermore with increasing environmental and budgetary pressures, mixtures such as this will demonstrate a 'commitment to green' as well as becoming a key component of integrated maintenance programmes.

APPLICATIONS

• Construction, renovation and species exchange for free-draining golf and bowling greens where the minimum regular mowing height is 4mm.
  
• Oversowing take-all patch scars.
  
• Germination of fescues at cooler soil temperatures.
  
• Improving sward density, drought tolerance and disease tolerance (red thread, fusarium
  and dollar spot).
