Agrostis Stolonifera F. Pontica

Pontic bentgrass, scientifically known as Agrostis stolonifera f. pontica, is a unique grass species native to the Pontic region of southeastern Europe. This variety is distinguished by its creeping growth habit and dense, fine-textured foliage. It thrives in moist, well-drained soils and is often found in wet meadows and along riverbanks. Due to its adaptability and ornamental value, it has been introduced to various parts of the world. Despite its beauty, it remains a relatively obscure plant in modern horticulture.
