Abstract/Contents:Profiles Greenvie, "a strong creeping red fescue," introduced by Top Green. States that "ideal for golf tees and fairways, [Greenvie] is...exclusively distributed to greenkeepers throughout the [United Kingdom] by specialist seed agent Rigby Taylor, through their dedicated Mascot range." Reports that "for shady areas, and situations where renovation is required, Rigby Taylor's Mascot R116 is making dramatic improvements to course conditions, especially on highly stressed greens." Concludes that "Mascot mixes to cater for all conditions are available - from the colder north to the warmer south - or bespoke mixes can be prepared."
