Built for Play

Tall fescue is tough and resilient, making it one of the best lawn grasses for active families. Its strong roots and dense growth allow it to handle heavy foot traffic from kids, pets, and outdoor play, while staying green and attractive.

Low-Maintenance Lawn

Naturally drought-tolerant and adapts well to different soil types and climates. It requires less frequent watering, fertilizing, and mowing than many other grasses, making it a smart choice for homeowners who want a lush lawn without the extra work.

Lush Green Appearance

Creates a thick, dark-green lawn that looks great while standing up to wear.

Built-In Drought Defense

This tall fescue blend develops deep roots that thrive on up to 40% less water, making it ideal for low-irrigation landscapes.

Planting and Growth Guide

Soil Preperation

If desired, test your soil well before seeding and amend per recommendations. Clear the area of weeds, rocks, and debris, then loosen the top 2–3 inches of soil with a rake or tiller. Smooth and level the seedbed so the grass seed will have good contact with the soil. A firm but not compact surface is ideal for even germination.

Seeding With Rice Hulls

Mix your Triblade Elite Fescue Lawn Mix with the included rice hulls before spreading. The rice hulls act as a natural filler, helping distribute seed evenly and improving soil aeration. Spread the mixture across the prepared soil and lightly rake to ensure good seed-to-soil contact without burying the seed too deeply.

Applying a starter fertilizer

After seeding, apply the Organic Seed Starter Fertilizer according to the recommended rate on the bag — not the entire 50 lb bag at once. This provides the nutrients young seedlings need for quick germination and strong root growth. Water in thoroughly so the fertilizer begins working right away.

Watering & First Mow

Keep the seeded area evenly moist, watering lightly several times a day if needed, until seedlings sprout (usually 5–14 days). Once germinated, transition to deeper, less frequent watering—about 1 inch per week—to promote strong root growth. When the grass reaches 2–3 inches, start mowing, removing only the top third of the blade (set mower to ~3 inches). Use sharp mower blades for clean cuts. After the first mowing, continue with regular watering and mowings at the same height.

Questions & Answers

Do I need to add anything else to get started?

No additional products are required. This bundle includes seed, fertilizer, and soil amendment — the essentials for strong establishment and healthy growth.

How much water does my new tall fescue lawn need?

Keep soil moist while seedlings establish. Once mature, water about 1 inch per week, applied deeply and infrequently to promote strong, drought-tolerant roots.

Is the lawn drought tolerant?

Yes. Tall fescue is known for its deep roots and excellent drought tolerance, making it easier to maintain a healthy lawn with less water.

When do I apply Rice Hulls?

Apply rice hulls at the time of seeding. Mix them into the topsoil before planting or blend with your grass seed for even spreading. Lightly rake and water after seeding. You can also use rice hulls as a light topdressing.

When do I apply the Starter Fertilizer?

Apply the starter fertilizer at planting. You can either work it into the soil before seeding, or spread it right after sowing and then water it in thoroughly. For overseeding, apply at the same time you spread the seed. Important: do not use the entire bag of fertilizer at once—apply only the recommended amount for the area you’re planting.
