In 1959, Tifway (419) was released. It became the turfgrass
standard for fairways, sports fields, home lawns and other
areas where fine-textured, dark green, dense, weed-free, warm-season
turf was desired. Many varieties have entered the turf market
since Dr. Glenn Burton released Tifway, but none have equaled
Tifway's performance and superior turf characteristics...
UNTIL NOW!
TifSport™ is grown and sold in a way that protects its
genetic purity. The turfgrass manager can purchase TifSport™ from any of the licensed growers and be assured that the genetics
of the grass purchased today will match the grass he purchases
five, ten or twenty years from now, a very important benefit
when you get ready to reconstruct certain areas.
