California Green

Tall Fescue

The traditional Tall Fescue was introduced to New Zealand by Readylawn in the early 2000's. The leaf texture of Tall Fescue is rather coarse compared to other turf grasses. This means that it stays greener in dry summer periods & tolerates higher temperatures. This variety is now a rhizomatous tall fescue. This enables it to repair itself if it is damaged for any reason.

Price: $12.50 m2 Incl GST(ex yard)

BENEFITS

  • Improved wear tolerance
  • Need less water than rye grasses
  • Rhizomatous and will recover easily from any setback
  • Coarser leaf than rye grasses
  • Medium to dark colour

Recommended Use
