The ultimate guide to quality turfgrass varieties: Turfgrass Seed by BSPB.

Breeding premium grass varieties for both recreational and professional applications is an intricate, lengthy, and costly endeavour.

This process, which includes plant breeding through crossing, selection, and extensive trials, often spans over a decade before the varieties are eligible for government registrations and industry performance evaluations. The subsequent stages of production, inventory management, manufacturing, and marketing involve significant financial investments. To effectively utilise these superior grass varieties, expert guidance and advice are crucial.

Turfgrass Seed, presented by the British Society of Plant Breeders Limited (BSPB), serves as the definitive buyer’s guide to quality amenity turfgrasses.

It offers thorough assessments of various grass varieties through trials designed to ascertain their suitability for diverse applications:

• Winter sports pitches, including football and rugby fields, and community recreational areas (Sports Uses Trials).
• Domestic lawns, summer sports pitches, tennis courts, golf courses, and general landscaping projects (Lawns, Landscaping, Summer Sports, and Turf Trials).
• Golf and bowling greens requiring intensive management (Greens, Close Mown Trials).

Turfgrass Seed delivers the most authoritative interpretation of these trials, accurately analysed and independently supervised, providing invaluable insights to professional users in search of high-quality amenity grass cultivars.

Conducted in Bingley, West Yorkshire, these trials ensure the findings are relevant and reliable for users in similar environments, firmly establishing Turfgrass Seed as the essential guide to quality turfgrasses in the UK.
