It grows in tufts and forms a dense turf..

  • It reacts favorably to fertilization. It is quite resistant to water ponding and poorly-drained soil. Heat,
    drought and traffic tolerance is its greatest strength, as it can form very deep roots (30-35
    centimeters). It is shade-tolerant.
  • It is also tolerant to salt water. It can be used with ease in landscaping and coastal areas that have
    access to well water. Close mowing under 1 cm causes damage. It is not recommended for very cold
    and high-altitude regions.
  • Its seeds may germinate in 7 to 14 days. Seed purity may reach 98-99%. Germination power is
    between 85-95%.
