Stand 30 will be the platform for visitors to find out more about mixtures across the Masterline, MM and Johnsons Sports Seed brands, alongside native and non-native wild flowers.

Turf managers across the sporting and amenity spectrum visiting GroundsFest can find out more about
DLF’s Ecosward mixtures incorporating 5% Microclover, ideal for landscape applications, at the show.

For those maintaining sports turf, thoughts are turning to autumn renovations, where speed of establishment is
key. DLF’s 4turf tetraploid variety ensure fast germination and establishment in cooler temperatures, together with demonstrating increased tolerance to stresses such as cold, drought and a range of common turf diseases. 4turf is incorporated into a number of autumn mixtures for sports turf, including J 4Turf 50 and J 4Turf 100 from the Johnsons Sports Seed collection.

The DLF technical team will be on hand to discuss the array of popular sports and landscape mixtures, together with the Pro Flora and ColourBoost wildflower ranges. DLF have significantly increased in-house production facilities during 2024 to meet the growing demand for conservation mixtures and promising greater capacity to support biodiversity projects, with over 25 mixtures available across the two collections.

Groundsfest Show is held 10 - 11 September at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire.
