A seed mix characterized by being fast to become established and cover ground, allowing it to complete with autumn lawn weeds (Poa annua).
Designed for technical surface and playing field regeneration at low temperatures (as low as average daily temperatures of 8 °C), it is suitable for establishing fresh cover off season.
It features Lolium multiflorum turfgrass, an annual plant that covers the surface and disappears in the spring when it is replaced by the Lolium perenne found in the seed mix.

Featuring varieties selected for their trampling tolerance and tear resistance with playing, it is glossy green even in the winter.
These varieties are resistant to several fungal diseases, particularly Red Thread (Laetisaria fuciformis) and Snow Mold (Typhula spp.).
The OVERSEEDING WINTER SEED MIX features rapidly germinating varieties, even for autumn-winter reseeding.
The lineages used in the OVERSEEDING WINTER SEED MIX more quickly cover large areas compared to other Lolium perenne varieties commonly used for reseeding.
