Turf -Type Tall Fescue has come into its own as a staple of cool season lawns in recent years, especially lawns in the transition zone or middle part of the country. It has the ability to be drought resistant while providing a dark green and lush appearance that's also great for lawn stripes.  My blend of 4 of the elite cultivars provides you with assurance that your fescue lawn will be exactly what you expect it to be and more!

Fine fescue has been making a comeback in the northern climates and for good reason! More and more research has produced varieties which are drought tolerant, low maintenance, disease resistant, and require less fertilizer than other cool season grass types.  Add in the fact that they can be used in shade situations and many are quick to realize the benefits that a low input lawn of fine fescue provides.  I have been testing fine fescue in 3 different plots at my location and have found that they can be used in full sun or full shade.  Full sun plots do some show dormancy/browning in mid summer but bounce back when cooler weather and rain returns in the fall.  Mowing height is best around 2.5" or below since these are very fine in texture and don't stand up as well at taller heights of cut. In wet and shady areas fine fescue is not as traffic tolerant so keep that in mind.
