West Coast Seeds - Tall Fescue, 900 g

Tall Fescue stands up to traffic, drought, cold, shade, pets, and mowing. It is far tougher than conventional lawn grasses like Kentucky blue grass, but it still makes a lush green lawn. It is commonly used by municipalities for planting recreation fields and school grounds. This fescue is a tough perennial. Officially, it is hardy to Zone 4, but a sudden onset of very cold weather can interfere with its dormancy, causing winterkill. Sow in the spring or fall (fall is recommended) at a depth of 5-10mm (¼-½”). Because this product does not produce thatch, it is not attractive to the chafer beetle. Fescue can be mixed with wildflower blends or Micro-Clover to cover in an area densely and quickly. It still requires mowing approximately every two weeks in the growing season. Use Tall Fescue to overseed existing lawn or seed a new area, with no turf present. Seeding rates are included on packaging.
