In the era of climate change, plant diversity is your friend. Every turfgrass species has its own unique set of characteristics. That’s why we create turfgrass mixtures. The botanical balance within any turfgrass mixture improves your ability to thrive across a wider range of weather events. It’s time to start thinking of your turfgrass mixture as a strategic tool for maintaining good quality turf in the era of weather extremes.
