DARIMO Festuca – a hybrid variety of perennial ryegrass (Festuca pratensis Huds.), code 9800069, intended for sowing as a lawn. The variety belongs to the intermediate to semi-prostrate type: diploid, with long stems and medium-length inflorescences, green leaves, and medium-sized flag leaf (from narrow to medium). Flowering time is medium-late. According to the applicant, the variety is winter-hardy and drought-resistant.
The crop is characterized by high resistance to unfavorable conditions: it does not tolerate wet areas but withstands drought well and prefers sandy-humus soils with low humus content. Best development is achieved in sunny, warm, or hot dry places; in cold years, the flower becomes less vibrant.
Care for Festuca DARIMO is simple and does not require frequent intervention: in spring, clear the bushes of remaining foliage, and after flowering, cut off the spikes. If necessary, divide the plant every 1-2 years, and replant every two years for more intense coloring. High seedling quality and a guaranteed term up to 360 days make this variety an attractive choice for those looking for reliable lawn grass.
