Product Information

The Bermudagrass genus has centers of origin in Africa, the Indian subcontinent, and China. Most cultivars originate from African germplasm, with a few recent ones tracing back to China. Royal Bengal uniquely comes from material selected in the Indian subcontinent (from Bangladesh). Its unique genetic source allows for higher genetic diversity.

Royal Bengal exhibits high turf quality across a range of environments. It has shown good performance in climates from tropical to arid and up to the Transition zone. It has shown moderate cold tolerance and good resistance to spring Dead Spot. It tolerates high heat, drought, and saline conditions. Royal Bengal has high density with aggressive stolons and rhizomes. The high density helps prevent weed invasion.

Royal Bengal can be used for sports fields, home lawns, parks, schools, and golf course tees and fairways. Its rapid establishment makes it excellent for repairing damaged areas in seeded or vegetative Bermudagrasses. It has improved Fall color retention (similar to Yukon, Princess 77, and Riviera). Germination of this grass typically occurs in 5-7 days under ideal conditions with the first mowing at 18-21 days, depending on usage. Full coverage should be in 4-6 weeks under ideal conditions.
