Elite Creeping Bentgrass Seed for Golf Greens, Tees & Fairways

007XL Creeping Bentgrass Seed is a professional-grade turfgrass variety designed for golf course superintendents, turf managers and renovation projects that demand a smooth, dense and highly uniform playing surface. As a creeping bentgrass variety, Agrostis stolonifera, 007XL is built for closely maintained golf greens, tees and fairways where fine texture, turf density, disease resistance and reliable recovery are essential.

007XL produces a bright medium-green turf with excellent leaf texture and a tight surface that performs well under low mowing heights. Its dense growth helps support better putting quality while also improving competition against Poa annua. For golf facilities focused on long-term turf performance, 007XL offers strong resistance to major turfgrass diseases, including Dollar Spot, Brown Patch, Anthracnose and Snow Mold.

Why Choose 007XL Creeping Bentgrass Seed?

007XL is built for high-performance golf turf where appearance, playability and disease resistance matter. Its dense canopy and fine leaf texture create a professional playing surface, while its strong wear tolerance helps turf recover from traffic and ball marks. The variety is especially valuable for golf courses that want a creeping bentgrass seed capable of maintaining quality under low mowing and cool-weather conditions.

For reduced-input turf programs, 007XL is also recognized as a certified creeping bentgrass variety in a low-input turf evaluation program, supporting its fit for projects focused on sustainability, lower maintenance pressure and improved turf performance.

007XL creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) is a premium Super Bentsβ„’ variety developed for high-quality golf course greens, tees, and fairways. Bred through a long-term Rutgers University program in cooperation with Dr. Stacy Bonos, Dr. Richard Hurley, and Dr. Leah Brilman, 007XL was selected for its advanced disease resistance and strong turf performance.

This variety is ideal for courses seeking excellent playing surfaces while reducing fungicide costs. Compared with older bentgrass varieties or turf dominated by Poa annua, 007XL may require 50% less fungicide use or more. It shows excellent resistance to Dollar Spot, Brown Patch, Anthracnose, and Pink and Gray Snow Mold.

007XL produces a dense, uniform turf with a bright medium-green color. It offers strong traffic tolerance, performs well under very low mowing heights, and maintains a tight playing surface on greens, tees, and fairways. It also stays actively growing in cool weather without turning purple and avoids the puffy, thatchy growth often seen in other bentgrass varieties during summer.
