Deep rooted very persistant Excellent wear tolerance Dark green colour Good disease resistance |  |
Origin
VENANZIO is the result of a topcross involving selections in 6 high performing cultivars narrowed for dwarf growth, dark colour and year round performance.
Colour
The leaf color is dark green.
Ready for the toughest challenges
New very dense and low growing varieties tend to lose some of the rusticity and drought/heat tolerance that made Tall Fescue so popular. VENANZIO was bred to never compromise with the original heat and drought tolerance while maintaining excellent density, fineness and disease tolerance.
