Schedonorus arundinaceus
Crossfire 4
Crossfire 4 Turf-Type Tall Fescue (IS-TF 310 SEL) performs well into the deep south and exhibits excellent cold tolerance for northern zones. Superior turf quality comes from excellent drought tolerance, wear tolerance and shade tolerance. Crossfire 4 was selected for high turf quality and Brown Patch resistance. It has a fine leaf texture and high density with excellent stress tolerance. High density cultivars often sacrifice Brown Patch resistance but Crossfire 4 is one of the best against this serious disease.
