Watering: RTF Fescue has deep roots and tolerates reduced watering better than most cool-season grasses, but it still benefits from consistent moisture, especially in hot, dry periods.
Mowing and Care: As with most cool-season grasses, regular mowing to an appropriate height helps maintain density and lawn health. Its medium leaf texture requires standard mowing practices.
Shade Management: Performs well in shaded areas, though ensuring airflow and light penetration supports optimal lawn condition.
Repair & Overseeding: The rhizomes help fill bare spots naturally, reducing the need for frequent overseeding.
Fertilisation: Regular fertilisation tailored to cool-season lawns supports lush growth and colour through seasonal changes.

Additional Information

25 years of research and development

TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda is the product of almost 25 years of research and development from one of the world’s leading turf grass breeders, the University of Georgia. TifTuf has been hand selected out of almost 30,000 different Bermuda varieties, showing superior qualities in drought tolerance, shade tolerance, wear tolerance and winter colour whilst at the same time maintaining excellent turf quality.

High wear tolerance and self repair capacity

The name says it all – Tiftuf is tough! TifTuf is the best hard wearing grass variety available. This variety has a very fine leaf blade with dense growth, making it ideal for a wide variety of applications. Its density enables it to handle high wear situations like backyards and sports fields whilst its fine blade ensures shade tolerance and a very soft leaf to walk on.

100% genetically pure

As TifTuf was selected from a large gene pool based on certain traits, maintaining the genetic purity is crucial. To ensure this, the University of Georgia has bred all of its foundation material (thousands of acres) from one plant!
