Panama Bermuda Grass Seed with Yellow Jacket Coating
- Panama is a genetically advanced turf-type Bermuda grass.
- Panama's leaf texture is fine and displays a dark green color.
- Seedling vigor and aggressive establishment helps promote Panama as a dense turf.
- Panama is a widely adapted variety which displays excellent overall turf quality.
Breeder: Pure Seed Testing, Dr. Melodee Fraser
Recommended Use: For
establishment of an aggressive, dense Bermudagrass turf where a low
growing fine textured appearance is desired. Excellent for lawns, parks,
golf courses (fairways, tees, and roughs), and sports turf.
Area of Adaptation: In the tropical and sub-tropical climate zones where
Bermuda grass is currently used. Germination: Panama should be planted
when soil temperatures are consistently above 70 degrees F, in full sun
on well drained soil. Proper drainage is essential for successful
establishment and the development of mature healthy turf.
 Care
must be taken not to cover the seed with too much soil – no more than ¼
inch covering the seed is recommended. Soil moisture around the seed
must be maintained for about 1-2 weeks.
Panama has excellent seedling vigor. Under ideal conditions, germination may begin within 10 to 14 days.
Allow 14 to 18 days for completion. Full coverage may be attained in 4
to 6 weeks. If planting is occurring early or late in the season, more
time may be needed for establishment.
After most of the grass
has filled in and when the blades of grass are 1/3 taller than your
desired mowing height, you are ready for your first mowing. It is
recommended that no more than 1/3 of the leaf blade be removed per
mowing.
Winter overseeding of dormant Bermudagrass may be done
for year round green color, but is not generally recommended on turf
less than 6 to 8 months of age. Immature turf may be damaged by the
vertical cutting and scalping procedures, leaving it unable to compete
with the overseeded species during the spring transition.
