New variety combines the strengths of Crystal BlueLinks and Pure Select
HUBBARD, Ore. (January 29, 2025) – Tee-2-Green, a grower-owned premium bentgrass seed supplier with warehouses in Oregon and on the East Coast, has introduced Elite Bentgrass Blend, a new mix of two of their highest performing bentgrass varieties. Elite combines the best characteristics of Crystal Bluelinks and Pure Select to create an all-new blend that delivers excellent results for golf course superintendents.
Elite is a resilient and versatile bentgrass blend that offers outstanding disease resistance, adaptability to sun, shade, and salt, and rapid recovery. It also exhibits fast establishment, deep rooting for drought tolerance, and superior durability, so it is designed for a wide variety of areas on a golf course, including greens, tees, fairways, collars, and approaches.
“We all face environmental issues and microclimates on our golf courses, whether it’s disease pressure, sun, shade, traffic, or salt,” said Lew Sharp, Tee-2-Green Agronomist & Golf Course Consultant. “The New Elite Blend from Tee-2-Green is real-world tested with proven results, and will give superintendents the confidence to handle the harshest conditions.”
For those wanting to learn more about the new Elite blend and talk in person with Tee-2-Green’s industry experts, they will be in attendance at the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) Conference and Trade Show February 3-6, 2025 in San Diego at booth 2745.
