Browntop and bentgrasses are highly suitable for golf greens, tee boxes and elite amenity areas due to their shoot density and tolerance to low mowing. These species show true fineness of leaf even when mown below 5 mm.
Tillinghast creeping bentgrass shows superior resistance to Dollar Spot (caused by Clarireedia jacksonii), Brown Patch (caused by Rhizoctonia solani) and Pink Snow Mould (Microdochium nivale). In addition, it shows excellent resistance to Anthracnose (Colletotrichum cereale) and Pythium Root Rot.
