Rhizomes
There is much to learn about rhizome activity in tall fescues.  One of the reasons why is that only a few commercially available varieties have rhizomes.  Since there introduction and obvious benefits - especially related to improved ground cover and self-repairing ability - both private and public researchers are taking a deeper interest.

Below are some more thumbnail photographs of Titan Ltd.'s rhizomes in action.  Click on each thumbnail to see a closer view.
 

First, here's a couple pictures of a "typical" tall fescue plant after 3-4 years.  This variety happens to be Rendition, which is very nice, but doesn't have rhizomes.  The plants are part of the breeder's nursery.

Now, compare the above with these pictures out of a 4-year old Titan Ltd. nursery!

It is easy to see how this would apply to a home or commercial lawn.  These plants NATURALLY want to reproduce and spread.(click to enlarge)

 

see how LITTLE space is

between these nursery plants?  The same thing happens in your lawn when Titan Ltd.finds a hole from a dog urine patch or other damage.

Finally, here's some photos of a REAL LIVE lawn situation.  The soil is very poor, and there has been damage to the turf, leaving open, bare spots.  Check out Titan Ltd.'s rhizomes filling in the bare spots!
