Lawn Seed Backyard 1kg

A hardy all round grass seed blend for general purpose back yard lawn care all year round.

This blend is a three-way blend of true winter active ryegrasses (75%), a creeping red fescue (20%) and NZ browntop (5%) three true winter active ryegrasses which contain Mediterranean germplasm (Colosseum, Arena 1 and Tambour), a creeping red fine fescue and browntop (Agrostis capillaris). This blend contains the most robust, fast establishing and winter-active cultivars from each species of grass. The ryegrasses are New Zealand bred true winter-active types (bred with Mediterranean germplasm), which with the genetic diversity this offers, exhibit exceptional year-round growth and quality and can be sown at any time of the year. They are fast establishing, winter-active and summer persisting varieties. The fine fescue is a creeping red fescue with outstanding winter colour, excellent disease, drought and shade tolerance and can thrive with both high and low inputs. The brown top chosen is a fine dense type with good colour and the ability to produce good looking turf at either low mow or higher mow situations.

Predominantly endophyte enhanced (most varieties contain endophyte)

If we sowed the grass seed at 40 grams per m2 a 1kg bag of lawn seed will be ample to cover 20m2, and more than enough for 1 x bulk bag of either lawn mix or topsoil no matter how thick you laid the soil. 1kg will be enough to sow a new lawn then over sow when desired, or for patch repair as required.
