We’ve Got Superior Turfgrass Down to a Science

Better Living Through Science

People often ask, what’s the secret behind beautiful, robust turfgrass? Our answer: the secret is science. We’re the TurfGrass Group. We identify exceptional, exclusive brands of turfgrass through meticulous research, technology, and engineering. In conjunction with our private sector and university breeding program partners, we license the production of the finest collections of superior, “value-added” turfgrass varieties available today. You won't find a more sustainable, hearty, lush, or beautiful turfgrass on the planet.

Only the Very Best Turfgrass Producers Make the Cut

Our turfgrass doesn’t just look good in the laboratory. Our mandate is that all our exclusive varieties consistently outperform commercial competitors. Because science says so. And so do we. Our varieties all meet certification standards and can be produced only by a limited number of licensed, certified producers in each state.

TTG develops the market and grower group, but breeders develop the varieties. We screen the growers work in the field and their data, provide input to them on market needs and assist them in developing commercialization strategies.

Tested Turf

Our turfgrasses have all undergone extensive university and breeder evaluation, including The National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trials. You will find our grass varieties all over the world, from pristine golf courses to luxury resorts to magnificent homes and landscapes.

Superior Science Makes for Lush Green Lawns

We’ve worked hard to make our turf varieties beautiful, so you don’t have to. Our products retain their beauty even in colder climate zones, and with minimal water and fertilization requirements. Which is why The Turfgrass Group is recognized as the gold standard in turfgrasses. Because science is a beautiful thing.   READ MORE

Turfgrass Fun Facts

A well-maintained lawn and landscape can add up to fifteen percent to the value of a house.

Eight healthy front lawns have the cooling effect of 70 tons of air conditioning—enough to cool 16 homes.

Enough oxygen is released by 2,500 square feet of well-maintained turfgrass to meet the needs of a family of four—every day.

For many centuries, lawns were a symbol of the rich and powerful, but today they are part of many landscapes.

The average lawn (roughly one-fifth acre) has over 7 million grass plants.
