All Bent

A 100% browntop bentgrass blend designed for overseeding and species exchange in golf and bowling greens

USAGE: 

Designed for the construction and overseeding of golf and bowling greens.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

A 100% browntop bentgrass blend designed for overseeding and species exchange in greens. It is of particular interest to golf courses focussed on outcompeting Poa annua and improving Microdochium (Fusarium) tolerance of greens.

The mix includes Charles, the #2 ranked cultivar alongside Howden as the #3 ranked browntop bentgrass. Their scores for visual merit and shoot density promise to have a major impact as part of a species exchange programme, improving golf greens and outcompeting the ubiquitous Poa annua.

BarKing is a European-bred cultivar with exceptional tolerance to Microdochium Patch disease (Fusarium) and superior winter colour.

Recent data from the USGA suggests browntop (colonial) bentgrass is superior to creeping bentgrass in performance under low light or shade conditions (see Fig. 1). This correlates with 7-8 weeks of additional optimal light conditions for browntop in the UK, compared to creeping bentgrass.
