It's better than annual...
Froghair is a new intermediate ryegrass. Froghair is designed for the overseeding market in the Southern regions of the USA. It is especially useful in overseeding into St. Augustine grass, Bahiagrass, Zoysiagrass, and the higher cuts of Bermudagrass.
Intermediates are genetic crosses using annual ryegrasses and perennial ryegrasses in the parentage. The breeding goal was to develop a type of high flourescencing ryegrass which is less costly to produce and well suited for overseeding situations on southern turf where the ultimate in quality is not the top priority, but where an improved performance over annual ryegrass is desired.
- Froghair is aggressive in its establishment
- Upright in its growth
- Medium textured when mature
- Considerably darker in color than annual ryegrass
- Does well anywhere annual ryegrass does well
- Cost less than perennial ryegrass
- Can be used in blends with perennial ryegrasses, fescues, and poa trivialises to take advantage of the respective and cumulative strengths of the individual species
- Does well in club house areas, road medians, entrances and large landscape areas
Froghair was developed to be strictly an overseeding type for situations where the ultimate in turf quality is not the issue. Its purpose is to replace the use of annual ryegrass with improved color and texture. Froghair also exhibits a somewhat reduced growth rate, and reduced persistence to ease spring transitions is overseeding situations.
