Signia
is a turfgrass that requires less irrigation frequency than
bluegrass, ryegrass and fine fescues. Signia is a shade
tolerant variety and ideal for home lawns, parks, and sod
production. It exhibits outstanding wear tolerance and resists hard
use on athletic fields, park and home lawns. Signia has an
early spring green-up and holds its color late into the fall.
Signia has performed well under low to moderate fertility, but
performs better under high fertility levels associated with the
maintenance of extensively used athletic fields and showcase lawns. |
