MM Universal Sport Grass Seed

MM Universal Sport Grass Seed

The high proportion of Perennial Rye-grass in this seed mixture ensures fast germination and a sward which is hard wearing. The addition of Strong Creeping Red Fescue to the mix increases the denseness of the sward due to its greeping growth habit. The cultivars used have excellent disease resistance and recover quickly following damage. This mix has a high wear tolerance and produces an excellent playing surface in a stadium environment.
