Description
Rhizomatous Tall Fescue (RTF®) is a new type of tall fescue, which produces rhizomes. A rhizome is a creeping stem or runner that extends outward from the main plant underground. The rhizome will send a shoot up to the soil surface while extending new roots downward, forming a new plant. RTF® Turf Saver has very great heat tolerance due to deep rooting. This blend stays green color very well under dry conditions. RTF behaves like a bluegrass, but like any other fescue it will survive the transition zone. The only seed you'll ever need.
Light/Soil Requirements: Performs best in full sun or shade. Performs well on many soil types.
