• Rapid establishment for interseeding
• Excellent Dollar Spot and Brown Patch resistance
• Resistant to Poa annua invasion

Penn A-1 creeping bentgrass displays a very dark green colour along with a fine leaf texture. It has outstanding heat and cold tolerances, very good winter colour and quick spring green up. Penn A-1 has good disease resistance and forms a dense sward. It is suited to golf course putting surfaces but can also be used on tees and fairways. 

• Very dark colour
• Good winter colour
• Outstanding heat and cold tolerance
• Superior wear tolerance
• Quick spring recovery and green-up

Penn A-4 creeping bentgrass displays a dark green colour along with a fine leaf texture and outstanding heat and cold tolerance. Penn A-4 has high disease resistance and forms a very dense sward due to its aggressive growth habit. It is suited to golf course putting greens as it forms a smooth grainless surface.

• Dark green colour
• Aggressive growth habit
• Exceptional heat and cold tolerance
• Fine leaf texture

Penncross is an aggressive growing bentgrass with wide adaptability, but it is relatively coarse compared to more modern cultivars for closely mowed greens. It has tight, upright growth characteristics and a fine leaf texture. It is best suited for use on golf courses (fairways, tees and greens) and winter overseeding of bermudagrass greens.

• Strong seedling vigour
• Aggressive growth and good wear tolerance
• Medium dark blueish green colour
• Good dollar spot resistance
