Cypress - Specialty Grasses
Somewhere This Year, A Superintendent Planted the Two Millionth Pound of a TMI Poa Trivialis!
That's right, in an unprecedented time span of only 6 years, TMI's Poa trivialis have taken the market by storm. Superintendents from Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Phoenix and across the sunbelt states are using Certified Cypress and Certified Stardust Poa Trivialis in record numbers.
University tested for years at such prestigious turf trials as the University of Florida, the University of Arizona and Mississippi State University. Certified Stardust and Certified Cypress keep coming up on top in establishment, color, putting speed and quality.
When mixed with creeping bentgrass or perennial ryegrass, exceptional greens and fairways are the result. What more could you ask for?
For excellent transitional qualities, specify a TMI Poa trivialis.
In the Fall of 1991, TMi released Cypress, a Poa trivialis that is unmatched by any other Poa triv on the market today.
Cypress is the culmination of years of research to produce the most advanced Poa triv available to courses for overseeding winter greens. The process of developing Cypress was started by making selections of the darkest Poa triv plants from throughout western Europe. After years of pains-taking hand selecting the Poa triv progeny that exhibited the best characteristics for density, color, establishment rate, and disease resistance, Cypress was born.
Turf Merchants was interested in developing a superior Poa triv to give superintendents an alternative to overseeding their greens with perennial ryegrass. One of the greatest advantages of overseeding greens in the fall with Poa triv is easy transition. Unlike perennial ryegrass, it is not necessary to sop flap while allowing Cypress to establish. Cypress germinated quickly, in 7 to 9 days, and Cypress can be mowed at normal putting green height at any time after overseeding. By overseeding the greens with Cypress you will create a fine, dark green putting surface as the bermudagrass is becoming dormant without having to restrict play.
By overseeding greens with Cypress, golf courses can have the best of both worlds. In the winter, Cypress will yield unparalleled dark green color. Then in Spring, Cypress will die out quickly as warmer temperatures return allowing for an easy transition back into Bermudagrass greens.
