Narrative
Turf-type buffalograss with improved quality, density, and leaf spot resistance, compared to other seeded buffalograss varieties when grown in central and northern portions of the U.S. Reduced vertical growth rate and produces female flowers that form close to the ground. Goes dormant earlier than southern adapted buffalograsses, but greens up earlier in spring. Smaller burs than other varieties. When not mowed, will produce inflorescences above turf canopy in ratio of approx. one female to one male
