Contracted to be higher quality than Blue Tag.Certified (Blue Tag) Seed is an assurance by a government agency that:
• The turfgrass seed varieties have unique characteristics that are stable through many years of growth.
• Varietal integrity has been maintained through the planting, growing, harvesting, cleaning and blending process.
• The finished seed product meets quality standards set by the certifying agency.
Many of our seed products have a Blue Tag on the package – insurance that these standards are met.
All of our turfgrass seed is selected, produced, harvested and blended with the following standards:
• Our seed varieties are selected from top turf breeding programs to meet the needs of our customers. All of our seed varieties are submitted to at least one cycle of testing in the National Turfgrass Evaluation Program, as well as regional University trials.
• We double test all seed lots to be free of UGS (undesirable grass seeds) including the absence of poa annua.
• We arrange production directly with seed growers under contracts that demand higher quality standards than Blue Tag seed.

BLUE TAG CERTIFIED

Look for the Blue Tag!
Golf course care (and play!) is all about the turf. So selecting the right seed for your course is one of the most important decisions a superintendent can make. That’s why you want to be sure to look for Blue Tag certified varieties, whenever possible.
Each state has a Seed Certifying Agency verifying the genetic purity of seed grown in that state. Buying Blue Tag certified seed gives you the added confidence that the seed you get is exactly what you bought and it carries all of the performance characteristics you are looking for.
Plenty of issues arise for you to worry about each day. The quality of your seed doesn’t have to be one of them.
Kentucky Bluegrass and Perennial Ryegrass Fairway MixesWe offer fairway mixes comprised of elite Kentucky bluegrass and turf-type perennial ryegrass varieties that are in the top tier of the NTEP turf quality trials. We use varieties that rate well when mowed at .4-.6 inches under high maintenance practices. These varieties also have high scores for genetic color, disease resistance and establishment.
Our elite turf-type perennial ryegrasses are traffic tolerant with improved mowing qualities due to their upright and dense growth habits. These advanced generation ryegrasses are resistant to gray leaf spot.
Turfgrass Rough Blends and MixturesThe improved turf type Kentucky bluegrasses, tall fescues, fine fescues and perennial ryegrasses used in LESCO rough blends and mixtures show improved shade and drought tolerance. All components are improved turf type varieties and have NTEP performance data.
Other seed blends and mixtures available containing turf-type tall fescues, Kentucky bluegrasses, and turf-type perennial ryegrasses. Ask your sales rep for details.
