Barenbrug Water Saver grass seed

Barenbrug Water Saver grass seed contains Barenbrug’s tall fescue, perennial ryegrass and smooth stalked meadow grass. Prolonged drought may seriously damage your lawn. Water Saver prevents this problem. While other grass plants dry out, Water Saver remains green. The Barenbrug Research varieties included in Water Saver have excellent drought and heat tolerance.

Water Saver contains Barenbrug’s tall fescue, perennial ryegrass and smooth stalked meadow grass. Barenbrug’s smooth stalked meadow grass varieties are known for their great resilience and ability to recover after dry periods. While other varieties are defeated by dry or hot conditions, a Water Saver variety will soon become green again.

Smooth meadow grass is the most influential grass in 
Water Saver. The range of smooth meadow grass varieties is very large, but Water Saver contains only those that Barenbrug Research selected as being best in terms of drought tolerance, winter hardiness and wear tolerance.

Barenbrug’s specific tall fescue varieties form a very deep root system, have a finer leaf texture and greater drought tolerance than traditional tall fescue varieties. The perennial ryegrass contained in Water Saver moreover ensures rapid establishment and was also specifically selected for its drought tolerance.

The balanced combination of the best Barenbrug tall fescue, perennial ryegrass and smooth stalked meadow grass varieties in Water Saver ensures excellent drought and heat tolerance.

Thanks to its deep rooting, the Water Saver grass obtains water from deeper soil layers. Standard grass plants root less deep and can only obtain water from the top layer (the upper 10 to 15 cm). Such plants will soon die under dry conditions, even before a stage of extreme drought is reached. The tall fescue contained in Water Saver can root to depths of more than 60 cm and stores water and nutrients (sugars) in its roots, creating a buffer for dry periods, as it were. Smooth stalked meadow grass ensures horizontal growth, resulting in an extensive network of underground rhizomes and roots.

Water Saver can help you save up to 70% on your total amount of irrigation water.
