Mightier

Mightier (DLFPS-236/3542) Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne) demonstrates superior turf quality across all locations of the 2016 Perennial Ryegrass NTEP. Its dark green color and early spring greenup make it excellent for overseeding bermudagrass. It has shown excellent resistance to Gray Leaf Spot, Red Thread, Stem Rust, Crown Rust and Pink Snow Mold. Mightier requires less inputs making it appropriate for many uses. Mightier is also wear tolerant at all cutting heights, with rapid recovery of divots from tillers and stolons.
