ECO-LAWN GRASS SEED
This mixture of seven red and hard fescues is a low-maintenance alternative
to traditional turf-grass. It needs less mowing and less water,
and can be kept unmowed for a natural, pastoral look. It is
drought-tolerant and grows in full sun to shade. It can be planted
year-round in the Bay Area and Central Coast, and once established
needs watering only every two weeks. Simple and informative seeding
instructions included. Great for garden paths and open seating
areas. 5-pound bags cover 1000 sq. ft and are $39.95.
