Anco Instant Turf Rtf Tall Fescue

RTF Tall Fescue is an exclusive to Lawn Solutions Australia accredited growers, RTF – or Rhizomatous Tall Fescue Grass – is a self-repairing grass that produces a thick, even, soft lawn and thrives in cold climate regions such as Tasmania, Victoria and cooler parts of New South Wales, southern Western Australia and South Australia. 

This lawn type thrives in cooler climates, is shade tolerant and does well all year round.  

Rhizomatous Tall Fescue Grass 

RTF Fescue features a leaf texture distinct from normal tall fescue varieties, being much softer to touch and gentle even on bare feet. It provides a thick and even lawn that is both soft and safe for even the smallest of feet or paws. The lush dark green colour will surely make the neighbours green with envy.  

More than 10 years ago, turf scientists developed RTF Fescue Grass as a superior tall fescue variety with rhizome—rich plants, whose rhizome roots fill in bare spots in a thinning lawn. A rhizome is a horizontal plant stem most often found underground, which is valued because they send out new roots and shoots, allowing new plants to propagate at a distance from the original plant. 

Tall Fescue grass is also more drought tolerant than most other species due to its deep roots. RTF Fescue is one of the deepest rooting cool season grasses available, with roots travelling down to 2 metres tapping into water normally not available.  

Since that breakthrough discovery, the Barenbrug Research Program is continuously developing new Rhizomatous Tall Fescue Grass varieties. Lawn Solutions Australia constantly monitors and only uses the latest and most advanced types from this research program. 

Other companies have tried to imitate Barenburg’s grasses, but university and independent testing has proven that Barenburg’s is a cut above the competition, being the one kind of grass to exhibit significant rhizomes and rhizomatous activity.
