Developed by the turfgrass experts at Oklahoma State University, Tahoma 31 bermudagrass pushes the geographic boundaries of bermudagrass into the northernmost reaches of the transition zone. Highly cold tolerant, the name “Tahoma” comes from the Native American word that means “frozen water”, and the grass lives up to its name. Golf courses as far north as Chillicothe Country Club in Ohio (fairways and tees) and Liberty National in New Jersey (driving range tee) benefit from Tahoma 31’s ability to stand up to cold winters yet thrive in hot summer temperatures. Tahoma 31 creates a sustainable and maintainable golf course with dramatically lower disease pressures compared to cool season grasses. A tight, dense turf generally mowed as low as 0.25- to 0.5-inch for excellent playability, with notable wear tolerance to heal quickly from divot damage and strong drought tolerance to save water, its deep blue-green colour offers stunning visual contrast for golf course design. Sod Production Services is the licensing agent for Tahoma 31 throughout the United States, South America, Asia and Australia.
