ARCHIBAL

Festuca trichophylla

Slender creeping red fescue

A widespread name and Variety!

Preceptibel by mind's eye

Stable and good visual merit if cut very short as close mown turf or kept a bit longer as a normal lawn.

 

High disease resistance

Really close mown ARCHIBAL shows a very healthy consistence as it has a high resistance against Red thread.

 

Wanted for mixtures

Not a top performer in terms of shoot density used as lawn variety but if considert as close mown variety ARCHIBAL shows nice and good density. If used in a blend or mixture ARCHIBAL is a fair partner and leaves some room for a companion to create a nice homogeny turf.  That makes this variety a favorable mixing partner.
