Beware of Lofty Turfgrass Claims
Not all turfgrasses are equal, nor are all turfgrass suppliers. Follow these simple guidelines to prevent falling for exaggerated claims.
Premier Source for Seashore Paspalum
Atlas Turf is the premier source for seashore paspalum turfgrasses worldwide. We offer both vegetative and seeded varieties. Pure Dynasty® is the most advanced seeded paspalum available. Platinum TE™ is the vegetative variety developed by renowned paspalum expert Ron R. Duncan, Ph.D.
Golf course and sports field projects of every scope and size select Atlas Turf paspalums for three primary reasons: sustainability, performance, and aesthetics.
Advantages of Seashore Paspalum
Sustainability
Paspalum is the most salt-tolerant species of turfgrass available and requires fewer inputs than other species.
Performance
Paspalum is faster to establish and recover from injury and wear than either zoysia or bermudagrass and also performs better in low light conditions.
With a fine leaf blade and the ability to be mowed at varying heights of cut, both Pure Dynasty Seeded Paspalum and Platinum TE Paspalum can be planted from tee-to-green.
Aesthetics
Pure Dynasty and Platinum TE possess a vibrant deep green color and superior density. Due to the wax load on its shoots, paspalum achieves striping with one pass of the mower for eye-catching fairways and fields.

Salt tolerance and the ability to grow with greywater irrigation make paspalum an ideal choice in locations where there are restrictions on water usage.
