MM12

A fine, dense, low-input outfield mixture for sustainable cricket turf (without ryegrass)

MM12 is a 100% non-ryegrass mixture developed specifically for cricket outfields where a tight, dense, fine-textured surface is required. This blend delivers smooth ball roll, strong drought tolerance and significantly lower nutrient and water demands compared to ryegrass-based mixtures. Featuring strong creeping and slender creeping red fescues, Chewings fescue and a touch of browntop bent, MM12 forms a compact, resilient sward that performs exceptionally well under typical outfield management. It is ideal for clubs seeking a sustainable and traditional fine turf outfield.

This mixture is treated with Headstart® GOLD
