SunBurst is a certified premium turf-type bermudagrass varieties specifically developed for professional turf applications such as golf courses (fairways/tees/roughs), sod farms, sports turf and commercial/residential lawns or anywhere a top quality turf is desired. Sunburst contains top performing NTEP varieties that offer superior leaf texture and density, excellent dark green color, improved cold tolerance and superior overall turf quality. Sunburst offers a quality alternative to vegetative varieties that are costly and time consuming to establish. SunBurst is adapted to most areas of climatic zones 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and will grow in a wide range of soil types and soil pH. Optimum soil pH is 5.5 to 7.0.

SunBurst will perform best on well-drained soils in areas that receive full sunlight. SunBurst should be planted in a firm seedbed at a depth of 1/8” to 1/4” when soil temperatures are consistently above 65 degrees F. Good soil moisture needs to be maintained during establishment with frequent but light irrigation. Seedlings should start to emerge in 10 to 21 days with full coverage attained in 4 to 6 weeks under optimum growing conditions. As seedlings develop, decrease irrigation frequency, but increase the amount of water applied and follow recommended regional watering guidelines as the turf matures. Mowing can begin when the grass is 1/3 taller than the desired mowing height. To maintain a healthy bermudagrass lawn, try not to remove more than 1/3 of the leaf blade per mowing. In areas where winter injury is a concern, planting should be done 60-90 days before first frost.

Dormant bermudagrass can be overseeded with a cool season grass such as Chipmate Perennial Ryegrass Blend for year-round green color. Overseeding is not recommended on new turf less than 6 to 8 months old.
