Our most specified mixture, a unique mixture that creates an attractive, hardwearing low maintenance lawn.
A22 is a unique perennial ryegrass-based, low maintenance mixture. Fescues are inherently slower growing but have limited wear tolerance opposed to perennial ryegrasses which are hardwearing but generally quick to grow. Cabrio Ultra fine perennial ryegrass is highly rated for slow regrowth after mowing so A22 offers the best of both worlds, a low maintenance sward that is very hardwearing. Consequently A22 is one of our most popular and most commonly specified mixtures. Cabrio is the highest rated variety for summers sports and landscaping on table L1 of the 2020 BSPB recommended list so A22 provides a very attractive sward.
