This has a minimum height setting of a mower of 75mm and a maximum recommended height of vegetative growth of 150mm. This category of turf will typically cut every 3 to 4 weeks. It can be suitable for areas in water engineering, such as flood banks or in woodland settings or country parks. It will be cut with either a rotary mower, flail mower or reciprocating knife mower and all clippings will be let fly and returned to the surface.

The desirable grass species will be quite varied depending on what is aiming to be achieved, so, any turfgrasses could be considered depending upon the situation required. The aim would be to have good grass coverage of whatever the desired grasses where required, being at least 60% ground cover (with total ground cover being at least 70%).
