Turfway

Turfway Turf-Type Tall Fescue (IS-TF 282M2) combines dark green color with superior heat tolerance for excellent summer performance. Turfway has demonstrated superior resistance to gray leaf spot. The dark green color persists into winter and returns early in the spring due to its cool season growth. Improved drought tolerance and Brown Patch resistance contributes to long term survival and performance. A broadbase growth form enables excellent wear tolerance with rapid recovery. High levels of viable endophyte contribute to insect resistance and improved biotic and abiotic stress tolerance, improved seedling establishment and reduced weed invasion

Key features

  • Summer Drought tolerance
  • Resistance to Stem Rust and Net Blotch
