Columbine is tailored to withstand hard wear, recovery with excellent results even after severe damage, thus maintaining a very high live ground cover.

Salt tolerant repair mix constituent

Columbine is perfect in repair seed mixtures to revive damaged pitches or playgrounds and upgrade towards a surface allowing more playing hours. As an extra +, Columbine has shown high salt tolerance.

Rough, tough but still fine!

In spite of being dedicated to sport, Columbine is nevertheless much finer leaved than 10 year old "ornamental" varieties with very good persistency. A good investment!

Easy establishment except for weed!

Columbine is very easy to establish. The high live ground reduces weed invasion – including Poa annua.
