Tall Fescue Grass Defiance XRE Logo

Defiance XRE Tall Fescue Grass is a fescue grass seed blend featuring fescue variety Grande II. Grande & Grande II are the only tall fescue varieties with rhizomes to be granted Plant Variety Protection (PVP) certification. The high incidence of rhizomes in Grande, combined with other improved tall fescue varieties, gives Defiance XRE faster recovery from injury, superior wear resistance and better ability to recover from stress than other tall fescue mixtures. In addition to rhizomes, Defiance XRE also has very high levels of endophytes, which give it a natural resistance to many surface feeding insects.

Defiance XRE Fescue Grass Seed Blend*

Defiance XRE contains the following Tall Fescue Grass Seeds - Note these varieties may vary.

  • Grande II Tall Fescue Seed
  • Guardian 21 OR Regiment II Tall Fescue Seed
  • Regiment II Tall Fescue Seed

*Note: XRE Variety blend percentages are approximate. Mixture component varieties and percentages are subject to change due to availability and may change from lot to lot. Mixture percentages are approximate amounts. (Contains up to 1% inert material)

Whether you’re growing grass for commercial landscape, sports fields, parks, golf roughs, or residential lawns, Defiance XRE with rhizomes is the key a to robust, beautiful turf.

Defiance XRE has rich dark green color and proven Brown Patch resistance. The roots of Defiance XRE reach deep into the soil for exceptional water absorption and less frequent irrigation. Defiance XRE also relies less on chemical input than comparable mixtures, giving you an environmentally friendly answer to the ongoing challenge of maintaining a  hearty lush turf .

Defiance XRE Tall Fescue Grass Features

  • Ideal for commercial landscape, sports fields, parks, golf roughs, and residential lawns
  • Dark green color
  • Medium fine texture
  • Semi-dwarf growing habit
  • Excellent disease resistance

The value of Rhizomes in grass are that they give plants the ability to spread densely (tightly) throughout the lawn area and provide a strong knitting ability, enabling easier sod lifting. Rhizomes in a Tall Fescue give what is normally a clump grass some spreading ability (slight repair ability). This allows for an increase in possible repair ability over time to replace close-by plants that may have been damaged by sport activities or by weather or other site issues.

Defiance XRE Tall Fescue Grass Benefits

  • Fast recovery from injury
  • Superior wear resistance
  • Better ability to recover from stress than other tall fescue mixtures
  • High levels of endophytes which offer a natural resistance to many surface feeding insects.
  • Proven Brown Patch resistance
  • Benefits of Self Repairing ability of Rhizomes
  • Rhizome's activity provides slight tillering / repair ability - This is NOT the same as spreading ability such as found with warm season grasses. - Plant Tall Fescues at 8-10 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. to achieve a proper turf lawn density establishment. - Failure to seed at proper rates will result in a non-uniform density (requiring reseeding to correct)
