What qualifies Scotts Professional Seed varieties as drought tolerant?

Maintaining premium quality turf in hot, dry conditions has always challenged turf managers. Pure-Seed Testing has developed a range of varieties which have been bred to withstand the heat of summer, helping you reduce stress to the grass plant, use less water and minimise labour costs.
 
Research & Breeding Work

Pure-Seed Testing has used new testing methods and equipment to evaluate recently developed grasses that demonstrate improved resistance to heat and humidity. Test-plot survivors are being used to breed new varieties and bring them to market.
