Gator Cinco

Gator Cinco

Gator Cinco diploid perennial ryegrass has superior turf quality from low to high maintenance. You can trust this variety to perform from sun to shade and under wear. The high salt tolerance improves performance beside roadways and sidewalks and also where effluent water is used. High resistance to Gray Leaf Spot and Crown Rust contributes to less inputs required. Dark green color, high density and low Poa annua invasion insure superior performance.
