Grass Seed

We all want beautiful, lush green grass on our lawns. The good thing is you don't have to settle for a patchy-looking lawn. You can easily restore it with different types of great-quality grass - all you need is a bag of quality grass seeds!

Variety of Grass Seed Blends

There are many different types of grass seed blends for your lawn. What you choose depends on various factors and conditions.

We have various options for your needs. You can get cool-season blends, warm-season blends, mixes for high-traffic areas, drought-tolerant lawns, and more.

Cool-Season Blends

As the name suggests, cool-season grasses grow best in areas with cool temperatures, not too hot and not too cold. However, some of them also have a limited tolerance to extreme weather changes and can adapt to cold and freezing winters and hot and dry summers.

Warm-Season Blends

Some warm-season blends include Bermuda grass, Zoysia grass, Buffalo grass, and Carpet grass. These grasses are highly tolerant of heat and drought and can withstand high traffic.

When choosing seed blends, consider factors such as;

Climate:We offer blends that thrive in various regions. Choose cool-season mixes for cooler climates and warm-season blends for warmer climates.

Soil type:Consider your soil type and have it tested if necessary. Some grass types, like Bermuda grass, thrive in sandy soils, while others, like tall fescue, do well in loamy or clay soils.

Consider the amount of maintenance you can manage. This includes mowing, watering, fertilising, and more. If your lawn experiences heavy foot traffic or play, make sure to consider this too.

Lawn Care Guide

The secret to a good lawn is great maintenance and care. If you want your grass to look lush, bright, and healthy, you need to mow it regularly.

The right height encourages dense growth and helps to maintain the best colour. It also supports their spreading growth habit and helps maintain a uniform appearance.

Make sure to water your lawn regularly too. Early mornings are the best time to avoid evaporation since the sun is not at full strength just yet, and it gives the soil ample time to absorb the water into the roots.

Don’t forget to aerate your lawn every now and again with a garden fork. It makes the soil less compact, allowing better penetration of nutrients, air, and water for better grass growth. For removing dead grass and moss, use a rake, or make your life a little easier with a purpose-built scarifier!

FAQs

How long do grass seeds take to grow?

Different types of grass seeds take different times to grow. In the ideal condition, you can expect to see your grass sprout between days 8 and 10 after sowing.

How long do you have to leave grass seed?

After seeding, give it enough time to germinate and grow. Avoid foot traffic or even mowing until at least 4 to 8 weeks. This will prevent damage to the seedlings and allow the grass to establish strong roots.

What is the best way to plant grass seed?

First, prepare the soil by removing weeds and debris. Once the soil is loose and ready, use a lawn spreader to distribute the grass seeds over the already prepared soil. You can also broadcast by hand.

Secondly, rake the soil surface lightly to cover the grass seed with a thin layer of soil. This protects the seeds from birds and helps improve germination.

Make sure to water the seeded area to keep the soil moist and monitor the growth process.
