Effective Against Weeds and Turf Diseases
Banksy offers excellent turf density and rapid establishment, giving it strong competitive ability against weeds. This helps ensure a uniform and visually appealing turf surface with fewer weed infestations. Additionally, Banksy exhibits high tolerance to rust and Microdochium patch (formerly known as Fusarium patch), reducing reliance on fungicides while maintaining high turf quality and extended playability.
