Schedonorus arundinaceus

Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler A-LIST (IS-TF 285) Turf-Type Tall Fescue is a very versatile variety that will excel in both full sun and deep shade. With aggressive rhizome production and high density, Nightcrawler is very wear tolerant and recovers rapidly from damage. Unlike some other high density cultivars, Nightcrawler was developed from progeny plots selected for Brown Patch (Rhizoctonia solani) resistance and turf quality in Kentucky. Drought and heat tolerance were demonstrated early in the breeding process. Whether high or low maintenance, in the sun or shade Nightcrawler performs.
