No Weeds | No Filler | Elite Quality

100 % de pâturin du Kentucky élite

Le pâturin des prés est un choix populaire pour sa couleur émeraude bleu-vert. Il se porte bien dans le climat plus frais du Canada et pousse plus vigoureusement au printemps et à l'automne. KBG aime beaucoup de soleil mais fonctionne également à l'ombre modérée et peut bien résister à une tonte basse. Il est particulièrement recherché pour ses qualités luxuriantes, denses et durables, et surtout sa capacité à s'auto-disséminer via des rhizomes qui s'étalent latéralement. Ce processus crée un gazon dense et épais qui peut se remettre rapidement des dommages. Une certaine patience est nécessaire lors de la plantation d'une pelouse de pâturin des prés, car la germination prend plus de temps que les autres graminées de saison fraîche (7 à 14 jours), mais ceux qui attendent sont récompensés par une pelouse sombre, luxuriante et durable.

Performance Data — NTEP Scores

Three KBG Cultivars. All NTEP Tested.

Every cultivar in this blend has been through the National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) — a multi-year, multi-location trial run across universities and research stations. Cultivars are evaluated blind and scored on quality, colour, density, disease resistance, and stress tolerance under real-world conditions.

NTEP uses a 1-to-9 scale, but scores above 7.0 are rare in practice. A 6.0 is considered acceptable. Anything above 7.0 puts a cultivar near the top of the field.

Here's how each one performed.

Jumpstart
Elite Kentucky Bluegrass

Jumpstart is widely regarded as the quickest-establishing elite Kentucky bluegrass available, and it's in this blend for exactly that reason. Kentucky bluegrass is slower to germinate than other cool-season species, and Jumpstart directly addresses that. It outpaced 85% of entries in NTEP establishment trials and scored in the top 13% for seedling vigor across seven test locations. It also scored 7.7 for colour at the Guelph, Ontario test site and brings strong spring green-up, meaning your lawn shows visible progress faster and greens up earlier after winter.

  • Widely regarded as the fastest-establishing elite Kentucky bluegrass available. Less time waiting on bare soil
  • Holds density into late fall. 99% ground cover at the Fargo, ND drought stress trial
  • Good heat tolerance with quick recovery after summer stress
  • Self-repairs through underground rhizomes. Fills in bare spots and wear damage over time

Prosperity
Elite Kentucky Bluegrass

Prosperity is an elite Kentucky bluegrass with one of the longest performance records of any cultivar we carry, tested across three NTEP trial generations spanning nearly 20 years. Its defining trait is colour: Prosperity has finished in the top 5 for genetic colour in every trial it has entered, including a score of 7.7 at the Guelph, Ontario test site. Where Jumpstart gets your lawn established quickly, Prosperity is the long-term anchor. It brings strong colour genetics, leaf spot and dollar spot resistance, and handles drought better than most bluegrasses in the field.

  • Consistently among the darkest Kentucky bluegrasses tested. Top 5 for colour across three NTEP trials
  • Strong leaf spot resistance. Scored 7.9 / 9.0, ranking #6 of 100+ entries
  • Self-repairs through underground rhizomes. Fills in bare spots and wear damage over time
  • Above-average drought tolerance for a Kentucky bluegrass. Ranked #3 of 100+ entries

Blue Devil
Elite Kentucky Bluegrass

Blue Devil is a sub-compact midnight-type Kentucky bluegrass with some of the darkest colour genetics in the NTEP trial, scoring above 7.0 at four or more test sites including 8.1 at North Brunswick, NJ. It also carries the strongest disease resistance of any cultivar in this blend, with a 7.8 out of 9.0 dollar spot score. In a province where cosmetic pesticide bans mean you can't spray for disease, that matters. Blue Devil adds fine texture and high density to the blend, contributing to a tight, uniform stand.

  • Among the darkest Kentucky bluegrasses tested. Scoring above 7.0 at 4+ NTEP trial sites
  • Scored 7.8 / 9.0 for dollar spot resistance. Fights disease on its own
  • Among the top 10 entries for wear tolerance under spring traffic stress
  • Fine texture with dense, tight growth for a uniform appearance
