EnviroBlend Tall Fescue
Recommended Use
:
 

Designed for high quality turf areas such athletic fields, parks, golf courses, commercial properties, and home lawns.
EnviroBlend Fescue

The dream of most homeowners: To have a lawn that requires less mowing and less watering.  Enviro-Blend goes a long way toward meeting that goal & dream.  Enviro-Blend is a blend of three or four different professional turf type tall fescues which produce lower and slower growing grass plants requiring less mowing, thus generating fewer clippings.  This lawn needs less watering and irrigation after initial establishment period than older varieties. If you have shade problems in your lawn, consider planting EnviroShade, which includes some of the same Turf Type Tall Fescues as EnviroBlend, along with fine fescues for shade tolerance.

CURRENTLY* HAVE THESE HIGH QUALITY
TURF VARIETIES BLENDED FOR A GREAT LAWN:

  • Enviroblend is a Blend of several Turf Type Tall Fescues.

  • Containing 3-4 varieties selected from the following:
    Durana, Penn 1901, Forte', Signia, OncueVirtue, Rebel Sentry

  • and Duster Tall Fescue  varieties*.

  • Percentages of each variety can range from 15% to 40%

  • Note: Different package sizes may contain a different blend of varieties.
     

    *Other turf type varieties or percentages may be substituted
    Most mixtures currently contain Durana, Forte & Signia.
    Substitutions are due to crop production or availability limitations at time of packaging. - Some 50# EnviroBlend Fescue packages may have 3 or 4 varieties blended. We do attempt to keep the varieties included updated as frequently as possible. Occasionally other varieties may be substitute varieties in these blends.  Mixture percentages are approximate.
     

These varieties are moderately low growing, fine textured and persistent under tough environmental conditions. Enviro Blend has been a top-performing blend and has shown good disease resistance to brown patch, fusarium patch, and net blotch. It has an average spring green-up time and this far, test data has shown Enviro Blend to be superior in color, leaf texture, and disease resistance when tested against comparable products.

Maintenance:

Enviro Blend has a low to moderate nitrogen requirement with 2-3 pounds of actual N per 1,000 square feet per year adequate in most situations. Enviro Blend's optimum mowing height is 1.5-2.5 inches, but can be adjusted higher or lower depending upon maintenance practices and intended use. It requires significantly less water than perennial ryegrass and Kentucky Bluegrasses to maintain a lush, green, vigorous stand.

Establishment:

For best results, Enviro Blend should be seeded at a rate equivalent to 6 to 10 pounds per thousand square feet. Cover seed to a depth not exceeding ¼" and keep seedlings moist until well rooted. The first mowing may be expected after 30 days, or when the grass blades reach a length of 3". Mow back to 2" until turf is established. Limited use of the area can be expected in 6 weeks. Enviro Blend can withstand a mowing height of 1.5 inches.

Seed Rates:

Home Lawns

6-10 lbs./1000 sq. ft.

Athletic Fields

Golf Course Roughs

300 lbs./acre

Parks

Re-Seeding

3-5 lbs./1000 sq. ft.

 

Enviro Blend may be mixed with 5-10% Kentucky Bluegrass like Blue Star or Chateau to produce a more luxurious and fine textured turf with excellent recuperative abilities.

Mowing Height*  

Mowing 3-4 times/week

1.5 - 2 inches

Mowing 1 time/week

3 inches or higher

*Recommendations vary according to location & season

Strengths:

    1. Endophyte enhanced for increased resistance to certain insect and disease pests.

    3. Moderately fine leaf texture with reduced vertical growth.

    4. Semi-dwarf growth habit produces fewer clippings.

    5. Good shade tolerance.
