Description
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.

Product Questions
Are the roots deep rooted and rhyzomas is best to cut no lower than 50mm would it only need mowing once a month.
Question by: Bernard Doran on 23 Aug 2020, 08:57
Thank you for your question. The root depth would depend on the seed bed, the Slender Creeping Red Fescue and Highland are stoloniferous. The cutting height for the mixture is between 20 - 50mm. If you cut at 20mm this would require cutting once a month, although this is dependent on climatic conditions.
