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.


Charles is a new NZ-bred variety, named after Bob Charles, the first left-handed golfer to win a major. Like Bob, it breaks new ground, being ranked #1* by a clear half-point. Its scores for visual merit and shoot density promise to have a major impact as part of a species exchange programme, improving golf greens and out-competing the ubiquitous Poa annua.


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

 

Recent data from the USGA (summarised from University studies) suggests browntop (colonial) bentgrass is superior to creeping bentgrass in performance under low light or shade conditions.

 

Barking is also available as a straight variety in 10kg bags.
