UC Davis’ new residential dorm lawn

mstrunk — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 22:52:18 +0000

UC Davis has chosen Park Avenue Turf as their sod supplier. The Davis campus administrators chose our Dwarf Fescue variety, which continues to be our number one most requested sod grass!

Dwarf Fesue is popular for its beautiful even texture and great durability, making this sod selection the perfect match for the campus’ new residential dorms!

The adjacent dorm buildings naturally surround this courtyard of lawn, creating a great place for retreat–perfect for throwing frisbees, study breaks in the sun, or even catching up with friends over a nice lunch before class. Nothing says fun like running around barefoot on a brand new lawn!

As a local sod company in Yolo County’s Central Valley, Park Avenue Turf is extremely fortunate to be a part of the ever-growing beauty of the Davis Campus.

Just like our Davis campus clients, we hope to fulfill all of your needs as best as we can. If you are unsure if Dwarf Fescue is the right variety of sod for your specific climate and area, we are here to help! Be sure to contact us at 800.734.8859 with any questions or concerns.

Park Avenue Turf is so grateful to be working on another golf course in the bay area! For the Mira Vista Country Club in El Cerrito, we are laying our Blue Rye and Meadow Mix. Our Blue Rye is especially great for wrapping golf course greens due to its fine texture, brilliant green color, and its excellent repairability.

If you are looking to install or repair a few golf course greens, Park Avenue Turf also offers a beautiful Bent grass that will not leave you disappointed.

It’s really important that you look at lawn care maintenance as a year-round endeavor!

Summer season tips:

Remove dead or overgrown shrubs
Learn the signs of bug infestation, and head them off before they get settled in
Water your lawn 2 or 3 times a week if rain is scarce
Treat weeds and seed bare spots as soon as you see them
Sharpen your mower blade again halfway through the season

Butte College lays Rhizomatous Tall Fescue (RTF)

admin — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 05:33:06 +0000

Butte College has chosen Park Avenue Turf’s Rhizomatous Tall Fescue (RTF) for their school because it has the durability of tall fescue and the repairability of bluegrass.

RTF is an advanced generation of turf-type tall fescue which produces rhizomes. A rhizome is an underground stem that penetrates laterally through the soil to spread the plant. Rhizomes send shoots up to the soil surface while extending new roots downward, forming a new plant. The rhizomatous nature of RTF is similar to Kentucky bluegrass. However, unlike Kentucky bluegrass RTF will survive the transition zone climate and other tall fescue turf regions.

Some very important features and benefits of RTF sod:

High level of traffic tolerance
Quickly fills in damaged or open spots with new shoots of grass
Excellent drought and heat tolerance with less irrigation
Rich green color
Excellent insect and disease resistance
Grows great in sun or shade
Rapid development of a deep root system
Environmentally friendly

Park Avenue Turf is proud to provide RTF sod in Northern California.
