Earth Carpet Guide
The Science is in the Seed. Growing lush, green turf with the “wrong” seed is like growing an apple tree from pumpkin seed – no amount of effort will give you the desired result. Earth Carpet® brings a revolutionary approach from years cultivating the right seeds for the right conditions.
Flagstick creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) was developed by screening for superior dollar spot resistance over multiple years and locations in both fairway and greens trials. It is a versatile variety with high density and rapid tillering to keep out Poa annua. The high performance reduces expenses on fairways, tees, or greens. 20 years of continual research ensures Flagstick will have superior performance wherever you plant it on your course. Flagstick has other important benefits including high density and fine leaf texture. Combined with resistance to many important diseases including anthracnose, red thread, brown patch, pink snow mold and take-all patch, your inputs with Flagstick will be reduced. Flagstick shows high seedling vigor and rapid establishment.
