Celebration’s extremely dark,
bluish color puts it in a class all by itself. Celebration has the
unique combination of rapid lateral growth and slower vertical growth.
Celebration recovers quickly from wear, but still requires 30-50%
less mowing than other turfgrasses. Celebration also has excellent
sod strength which means easier handling and better looking installations.
Celebration can be mowed with a sharp rotary mower or a reel mower.

for golf greens at the Coastal Plains Experiment Station in Tifton GA. Just
as Tifdwarf replaced Tifgreen 328 as the standard for putting greens over
the last three decades, TifEagle promises to set an even higher standard
for the 21st century. Used on more golf courses than any other ultradwarf,
TifEagle is the standard that all other greens are measured by.
