Tall fescue is a fast-growing, upright turfgrass with outstanding drought and wear resistance. Artimuss takes tall fescue to the next level, using several cultivars to produce the most resilient, the highest quality, and the fastest growing turfgrass when compared to other seed blends out there.
About Artimuss Turf Blend
One thing that sets Artimuss apart from other turf blends is Gravity PGS. It's a plant growth stimulator used on the seeds as a pretreatment to boost growth and development for faster spread, higher density and greener color. Because it's developed with cultivars using Lateral Spread technology, which improves strand density under stress, Artimuss is extremely resistant to drought, heat, traffic and fungal diseases such as gray leaf spot and brown patch.
Areas of Use
Whether it's for DIY yard lovers or lawn and landscape professionals, Artimuss is a recommended turf blend for sites where tall fescue is desired. It uses cultivars known for ranking highly on National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) scores in the Northeast and Transition Zone locations. Some areas of use include:
- Home lawns
- Commercial landscapes
- Municipal sites
- Sports fields
Benefits of Artimuss
Artimuss uses not one but four different cultivars: Titanium G-LS, Dynamite G-LS, Spyder 2LS and Avenger III. These turf seeds have Lateral Spread parents to boost density, drought tolerance, disease resistance and green color. These cultivars make Artimuss the ultimate tall fescue turfgrass blend available. Some of the main benefits include:
- Tolerates drought, heat and other stressors
- Resistant against diseases like gray leaf spot
- Treated with Gravity PGS for faster growth
- Compact growth for low-mowing ability
- Excellent spring and fall density
*Unlike fertilizer and other turf products, seed is harvested once per year. Varieties do occasionally run short and another variety will need to be used. In that rare case, Heritage PPG will use the highest quality and performance variety available at that time.*
