About This Variety
Meet This Variety
Tall Fescue is a perennial turfgrass for lawns and open landscape areas where a durable, upright grass habit is desired. Its broader blades create a practical lawn texture for sites that receive suitable light and are prepared for steady establishment.
Use it in regionally appropriate lawn projects rather than as a decorative border grass. Give young seedlings consistent care during establishment, then adapt watering and mowing to local weather, soil conditions, and the needs of the lawn.
A cool-season turfgrass for managed lawn projects in suitable regions.
