View the Labels/SDS information for Velista Fungicide.
Velista® fungicide is the broadest spectrum and only SDHI labeled for anthracnose in the golf market. Spring and fall are ideal seasons to clean up greens, tees and fairways. In addition to controlling anthracnose, Velista also protects against dollar spot, brown patch and more. When used in rotation with Briskway® fungicide, Velista delivers excellent control of summer stress diseases on greens when temperatures shift from warm to hot.
A FIFRA Section 2(ee) recommendation* for Velista was granted for control of these extra diseases:

Rapid blight (Labyrinthula terestris) is a relatively new turfgrass disease, with Poa annua, Poa trivialis and perennial ryegrass species being most susceptible.

Cultural practices, such as salinity management and using tolerant species in winter overseeding, are important for rapid blight management. Read more »
