Engineered for high-traffic areas like sports fields, golf fairways, and busy lawns, it thrives in full sun and hot climates, quickly recovering from wear and drought. With deep roots and aggressive spread, it forms lush, resilient turf ideal for both professional and residential applications.
Tifway 419 emerges as a standout warm-season hybrid Bermuda grass, combining a refined appearance with exceptional performance. Its fine, light- to medium-green blades and close growth habit create a visually pleasing, uniform turf that resists weeds and recovers swiftly. The blend of stolons and rhizomes forms a dense mat, ideal for high-use areas. Tifway 419 thrives under intense heat and humidity. It requires full sun, tolerates some clay or sandy soils, and prefers well-drained conditions.
Approximately 25 mm of water per week is sufficient during the growing season, and it survives drought by entering dormancy until moisture returns. Establishment is fast from sod, sprigs, or plugs, though it’s sterile and not available as seed. Maintenance includes weekly mowing at a height of 25–50 mm, bi-weekly fertilization (approximately 20–25 g of nitrogen per square meter per season), annual aeration, and compost top-dressing to reduce thatch. Its heat resilience, wear recovery, and moderate shade tolerance make it perfect for golf courses, athletic fields, and residential lawns requiring long-term durability with minimal upkeep.
Tifway 419 Bermudagrass has been widely preferred for sports fields for over 40 years. Its high disease resistance and self-reproducing ability make it one of the most durable hybrid Bermudagrass varieties. It is a warm-season grass with medium-sized leaves and a very dark green color. Roll-out grass is ready for immediate use after installation, though stolons require approximately four weeks to establish.
