Seaside II can be irrigated with water sources containing salt content as high as 15,000 ppm and a pH of 7.5 - 8.5, and it also demonstrates resistance to dollar spot. Seaside II has a medium-fine blade and produces a dense stand of grass, for high-quality playing surfaces on greens, tees, and fairways. Its aggressive growth characteristic allows Seaside II to compete well with invading species like Poa annua. Seaside II is often chosen for coastal golf courses, where sea spray is a problem for other varieties of bentgrass.

  Putting Quality: "I've had turf professionals visit and I've asked them to identify the grass, and the answer that I've been given, well, it's either an A or a G, so I think the answer is right there."

  Turf Performance: "Seaside II has performed very well in my fairways. If I would have spec'ed out the grasses on this course, I would have continued the use of Seaside II on my tee surfaces, because I like it that much."
