FABIAN

A new "major" species = tetraploid turf perennial ryegrass

Several "minor" species or varietal types appear regularly and are bringing progress with more or less importance for users, mainly for specific uses.  FABIAN is in another category. It can be considered as a new "main species" destined to occupy an important space in the turf mixtures.

The advantages can be summarised by "Anti-Stress"

          +  heat / drought & winter stress
