Spectrum (LNS 19) Creeping Bentgrass from GreenSource USA

GreenSource is proud to offer Spectrum (LNS 19) Creeping Bentgrass — the latest breakthrough from renowned Rutgers breeder Dr. Stacy Bonos. Built for high-performance putting greens, Spectrum combines elite disease resistance, exceptional turf density, and outstanding traffic tolerance to help courses maintain premium playing conditions season after season.

 

"For courses that refuse to compromise, Spectrum delivers consistent playability from the first round to the last."

 

Bred by the Best in Bentgrass Research

Dr. Stacy Bonos of Rutgers University has spent decades developing some of the most disease-resistant and performance-driven turfgrass cultivars in the industry. Spectrum (officially designated LNS 19) is among her most refined achievements — the product of rigorous field trials and genetic selection aimed squarely at the demands of modern putting surfaces.

GreenSource is proud to bring this cultivar to superintendents and course managers who understand that the right seed is a long-term investment in playability and cost control.

 

Built-in Disease Resistance Saves Real Money

Dollar Spot, Brown Patch, and Anthracnose are among the most costly and disruptive diseases a golf course can face. Together, they can devastate putting surface quality almost overnight — and fighting them with fungicides is expensive. Spectrum's superior genetic resistance to all three reduces both the frequency and cost of chemical applications, allowing maintenance teams to redirect budget toward other priorities.

Over the course of a season — and especially across several seasons — those savings compound significantly.

 

Spectrum Benefits at a Glance

Disease Resistance  Superior protection against Dollar Spot, Brown Patch, and Anthracnose.

Lower Maintenance Costs  Reduced fungicide dependency translates to meaningful long-term savings on chemical and labor.

Fine Putting Surface  Excellent mowing qualities produce a smooth, consistent roll that golfers will notice from day one.

High Turf Density  Dense stand formation crowds out Poa Annua invasion — a persistent challenge on aging greens.

Traffic Tolerance  Handles both foot and cart traffic with improved resilience through high-play periods.

Interseeding Compatible  An excellent choice for renovating tired or underperforming greens without full reconstruction.

 

Keeping Poa Annua Where It Belongs

Poa Annua invasion is one of the most persistent headaches in putting green management. Once established, it disrupts surface uniformity and creates problematic seed heads during play. Spectrum's exceptionally high turf density provides a natural barrier — a thick, well-established stand simply leaves little room for unwanted grasses to gain a foothold.

 

Renovation Without Reconstruction

Not every green needs to be torn up and rebuilt. For courses looking to improve surface quality without the expense and downtime of a full renovation, Spectrum is purpose-built for interseeding into aging or underperforming greens. The cultivar establishes well in existing turf and gradually elevates the playing surface over time — a cost-effective path to premium conditions.

Official bentgrass sod grower for both DLF and Seed Research of Oregon

 
 
 

GreenSource USA stands at the forefront of premium bentgrass sod production, serving as an official grower for both DLF and Seed Research of Oregon—two of the most respected names in advanced turfgrass genetics. Through these partnerships, GreenSource delivers cutting-edge bentgrass varieties engineered specifically for the demanding conditions of modern golf course environments.

Superintendents and course managers know that performance isn’t optional—it’s essential. That’s why GreenSource bentgrass is cultivated for exceptional durability under high traffic, superior density for consistent ball roll, and a refined visual appeal that elevates the overall course experience. Whether you’re renovating greens, tees, or fairways, these varieties are selected to meet the highest standards of playability and aesthetics.

Quality control is at the core of every harvest. Each is grown POA-free, minimizing contamination from Poa annua and ensuring a uniform, predictable playing surface. Bentgrass sod is cut fresh at peak condition, preserving root integrity and maximizing successful establishment once installed. This attention to timing and handling gives courses a critical edge when working within tight renovation windows.

GreenSource also offers reliable nationwide delivery, helping courses across diverse climates access elite turfgrass without compromise. From northern championship layouts to southern resort courses, logistics are handled with precision so your bentgrass arrives ready for immediate installation.

2026 Premium Bentgrass Sod, Grown to Golf Course Standards

Official Pure Seed and TEE-2-GREEN grower—Spring availability is limited.

Not all bentgrass sod is grown the same way, and on a golf course, that difference shows up immediately. GreenSource USA is an official certified grower for two of the most respected names in turfgrass seed development, which means every fresh-cut roll of sod that leaves our operation was grown from verified, high-purity genetics designed specifically for the demands of professional play.

We partner directly with:

Pure Seed

Industry leader in proprietary bentgrass varieties. Known for fine texture, tight density, and consistent performance across a range of climates and mowing heights.

TEE-2-GREEN

Specialists in turfgrass solutions for greens, tees, and fairways. Varieties developed and refined for elite playability and long-term course durability.

These aren't generic blends. The bentgrass varieties we grow are specifically selected for three things golf course superintendents care about most: performance under high-traffic and close mowing, purity to protect the integrity of existing course surfaces, and playability — the tight, smooth roll that golfers expect at every level of the game.

Whether you're sodding a new green, repairing a damaged tee box, or refreshing a fairway after a rough winter, using certified sod from an official grower means you're not guessing at what you're installing. The genetics are known, the growing standards are consistent, and the product is ready to perform from day one.

A note on spring availability: Bentgrass sod has a narrower planting window than most turf products, and our spring production books earlier than many customers expect. If a renovation or new construction project is already on your schedule — even tentatively — the time to reach out is now. Waiting until the window opens rarely leaves room to maneuver.

You can review detailed data sheets for each variety we grow, including seed purity, mowing tolerances, density ratings, and climate performance notes, before placing your order.
