Short description
GP-PerfektGrün RSM 2.3 Sport & Play is a species-rich seed mixture for new sowing and comprehensive renovation of sports, recreational and intensively used turf. It combines perennial ryegrass's rapid start, the density of several red fescue types and smooth-stalked meadow grass's rhizomatous regeneration.
This composition balances rapid establishment, wear tolerance, attractive appearance and long-term stability. It suits areas needing to look good while reliably withstanding play, running, training and regular mowing.
Key properties
Species-rich composition combines rapid establishment with durability and adaptability.
40 % perennial ryegrass supports rapid sward closure and wear resistance.
45 % red fescue promotes a dense, closed, visually high-quality sward.
15 % Wiesenrispe stabilisieren die Narbe durch unterirdische Rhizome.
Suitable for new sowing and comprehensive renovation.
Responds well to regular mowing and intensive use with appropriate maintenance.
Composition and functions of the components
| Proportion | Species and variety | Function in the mixture |
| 25 % | Lolium perenne (Esquire) | Perennial ryegrass: rapid establishment, fast sward closure and high use tolerance. |
| 15 % | Festuca rubra rubra (Maxima 1) | Strong creeping red fescue: supports density, adaptability and lateral sward growth. |
| 15 % | Lolium perenne (Rubella) | Perennial ryegrass: reinforces rapid results, wear resistance and recovery after use. |
| 15 % | Festuca rubra trichophylla (Borluna) | Slender creeping red fescue: forms a fine, dense sward and adds adaptability. |
| 15 % | Festuca rubra commutata (Kalle) | Chewings fescue: supports sward density, fine leaf texture and a well-kept appearance. |
| 10 % | Poa pratensis (Conni) | Smooth-stalked meadow grass: forms rhizomes supporting stability and natural sward regeneration. |
| 5 % | Poa pratensis (Miracle) | Smooth-stalked meadow grass: complements the rhizome network and long-term resilience. |
Why does this mixture work?
1. Rapid sward closure. Lolium perenne establishes quickly, shortening the period of bare soil.
2. Density and turf quality. Three red fescue types support a closed sward, finer leaves and broader site adaptation.
3. Rhizomatous stabilisation. Poa pratensis forms underground runners supporting cohesion and recovery from local damage.
4. Ausgewogene Nutzungseignung. Mehrere Arten und Sorten verteilen die Leistung auf schnellen Start, Optik, Belastbarkeit und Dauerhaftigkeit.

Dense, resilient and well-connected sward;
Highly suitable for family, sports and recreational lawns;
Good regeneration after regular use;
More stable overall performance than pure single-species mixtures;
Well-kept appearance with appropriate fertilisation, irrigation and mowing.
Applications
Sports, school and residential turf;
Playgrounds, recreational areas and intensively used domestic gardens;
Public green spaces subject to regular use;
New sowing and comprehensive renovation of worn areas.
Site preparation and sowing
| Determine the exact sowing rate from the current label, extent of gaps and site conditions. |
Assess the site and future use, considering soil structure, light, drainage and planned wear.
Prepare a clean, level seedbed, removing stones, weeds, plant residues and major irregularities.
Loosen the topsoil to create a fine, firm surface with good seed-to-soil contact.
Sow evenly in two crossing directions, at the rate specified by the current label and site conditions.
Lightly incorporate and firm the seed, avoiding excessive depth.
Maintain even moisture through fine irrigation and do not let the seed zone dry out.
After-sowing care
Keep the topsoil consistently slightly moist until emergence and rooting are even. Avoid drying out and waterlogging. Make the first cut with sharp blades only when young plants are firmly anchored; remove no more than about one third of leaf height per mowing.
Adjust fertilisation to soil analysis, growth and sowing date. Resume full use only after a stable, well-rooted sward has developed.
Professional application practice
Use only current label and seed-certification information.
Do not sow into dry, crusted surfaces without assured irrigation.
Calibrate sowing equipment evenly and avoid overlaps.
Do not place seed too deep; contact with moist soil is crucial.
Match timing to soil temperature, irrigation availability and planned use.
Results depend on preparation, timing, moisture, temperature, care and actual use. Seed does not replace a professional programme of fertilisation, irrigation, mowing and mechanical maintenance.

Role in the GP-PerfektGrün line
RSM 2.3 is the line's most universal mixture. Choose it for new sowing and major renovation when rapid establishment, density, appearance and long-term resilience matter equally. The two RSM 3.2 mixtures cover subsequent repairs and regular overseeding.
Frequently asked questions
Is RSM 2.3 suitable for domestic gardens?
Yes. It suits intensively used family lawns, especially areas used for play, recreation or amateur sport.
Is it exclusively for sports pitches?
No. Sport & Play also suits playgrounds, leisure facilities, schools, residential sites and other areas requiring high resilience.
Why does it contain three grass groups?
Lolium provides a fast start, red fescue density and appearance, and Poa pratensis rhizomatous stability and long-term regeneration.
Can RSM 2.3 be used for overseeding?
Yes, within comprehensive renovation. However, the RSM 3.2 mixtures are more specifically designed for rapid, regular overseeding of stressed areas.
What is the correct sowing rate?
Determine it from the current label, site preparation, sowing method and site conditions.
