Adaptation in Mixtures

Hardly two summers are identical. Sometimes the drought is prolonged and the growth of tall fescue favoured. On the other hand humid conditions will favour species like perennial ryegrass. Such alternating conditions can lead to a heterogeneous turf aspect. In our private trials prior to official listing we have remarked the ability of STARLETT to maintain the mixture balance. For STARLETT as for other tall fescue varieties we recommend at least 30% (weight) in the seed mixture to ensure a good start facing the more aggressive ryegrass. The perfect partner for tall fescue is Poa pratensis. 

Very Rust Resistant

STARLETT is highly disease resistant, in particular towards rusts.
