RTF Drought Resistant Turf
RTF Features
Rhizomatous Tall Fescue (RTF©) is an advanced generation of turf-type tall fescue which produces rhizomes. A rhizome is an underground stem that penetrates laterally through the soil to spread the plant. Rhizomes send shoots up to the soil surface while extending new roots downward, forming a new plant. The rhizomatous nature of RTF is similar to Kentucky bluegrass. However, unlike Kentucky bluegrass RTF will survive the transition zone climate and other tall fescue turf regions.
RTF is recommended for golf courses, athletic fields, playgrounds, campuses and high traffic residential lawns. A sun or shade variety, RTF turfs thrive in areas that don’t get lots of watering. Plus, this grass variety is drought tolerant so it’s perfect for the hot climates experienced in dry areas like Folsom and Sacramento.
