High yield
Medium leaf size
Apex has a medium-small leaf, with many more stolon growing points than old cultivars like Huia, for improved growth, and drought and pest tolerance.
Good persistence
A key feature of Apex is improved persistence. A Waikato grazing trial showed excellent persistence into its fourth year, with the highest fourth year yields.
High yield
Why grow Huia when Apex outyields it by 56% in winter, 39% in spring and 27% in autumn?
