## Description

Jonathan Green 10610 Dense Shade Grass Seed Mixture, 25-Pound

Review: The best
Review: This worked very well for me, with daily watering it germinated in about 2 weeks in a heavily shaded back lawn when it was an average of 85f outside and not much rain with straw covering (I'm East Coast). I was having issues finding the exact seed mixture of this so here is a photo from the back of the bag with their percentages. For me I wanted to know how much fine fescue was in this mix which I think is listed as Carson Chewings Fescue (I'm not a landscape expert).

## Features

- Dense shade grass seed mixture
- Contains naturally insect resistant endophytic turfgrass varieties which helps to deter insect pests

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is in the mix? Specifically what and in what percentages. I wonder why this information isn't given.**
A: 30% Dakota Tall Fescue25% Carmen Chewings Fescue15% Eugene Creeping Red Fescue10% Frontier Perennial Ryegrass10% Stanton Perennial Ryegrass 10% Deepblue Kentucky Bluegrass

**Q: does this seed grow in sun?**
A: It has for me, but its best quality is being able to grow in very dense shade. I've tried every seed out there and nothing compares to this. You should see our yard now, it looks better than Augusta National!

**Q: Is this perennial?**
A: The Texas winter storm of 2021 didn't faze it at all.  It was zero degrees, and I actually think it liked it.  It's been a couple of weeks (after the hard freeze) and I have to mow it already.  Dark green and beautiful.  I think it's better to seed in the fall and let the roots get established before the top soil gets too hot.

**Q: how well will it do in zone 8? Milledgeville, Georgia**
A: I can't answer for Georgia but in Illinois it did not work as well as I had expected it to.

*by G***P on 30 September 2024*

Have a 75'x75' area I cleared in a wooded section of my back lot to put up a ham radio antenna (yea, I'm a geek...deal with it 😎). Promised my wife I wouldn't take down any more trees than absolutely necessary, which left the clearing heavily shaded with barely any dappled light filtering in a couple of hours a day. Expected to just let the wild ground cover take over, but since the soil was nicely prepped and graded after the antenna work was done, figured I'd give this deep shade seed a shot. Pictures are from September 30th, 2024, 10 days after seeding. WOW! Germination at a very acceptable rate given the cool temps we've had and of course the lack of sun back there. Watered per directions, and I've had to leaf blow every couple of days to keep it from being smothered. Will update this review next spring when I see how it winters over but at this point I'm very pleased.
