This New Zealand bred cultivar has exceptional shoot density and a high tolerance to close mown wear, helping to prevent the spread of Poa annua. Manor also has excellent tolerance to fusarium. An ideal alternative to a fescue for inland courses wishing to reduce Poa annua and improve green speed.
Characteristics
The fineness and density of Manor browntop bent produces putting greens of outstanding quality. It displays a light green colour which aids the masking of Poa annua present in a sward. Manor browntop can be used for greens, tees, fairways and roughs and is also a good choice for low or high maintenance lawns where superior quality is desired.
