Thrive

Description

Thrive (IS-PR 469) Perennial Ryegrass was bred specifically for leaf disease resistance and superior overall quality. It produces a lush turf with high tiller density, fine leaf texture and dark green color. Drought tolerance and excellent performance under high and low maintenance makes it ideal for all uses. Thrive has demonstrated wear tolerance and early spring greenup. It is endophyte enhanced for natural resistance to surface feeding insects, subsequently reducing vulnerability to disease and stress.
