Chewings Fescue Grass Seeds
(Festuca rubra subsp. commutata)
5 lbs. – Approx. 400,000 Seeds
Chewings Fescue is a premium cool-season turfgrass known for its fine texture, rich green color, and excellent performance in shaded areas. This low-maintenance grass variety forms a dense, uniform lawn that requires less mowing, fertilizer, and watering than many traditional turf grasses. It is a popular choice for homeowners looking to create a beautiful lawn with minimal upkeep.
Unlike many grasses that struggle in partial shade, Chewings Fescue thrives where sunlight is limited, making it ideal for lawns under trees, along buildings, or in other shaded landscapes. It also performs well in cooler climates and is widely used in northern lawns, parks, golf courses, and landscape blends.
Chewings Fescue grows with a fine-bladed texture that creates a soft, carpet-like appearance. It establishes quickly from seed and spreads gradually to fill in thin areas, helping maintain a thick, weed-resistant turf. Its drought tolerance and ability to grow in poorer soils make it a reliable option for both new lawns and overseeding projects.
This 5-lb package contains approximately 400,000 seeds, providing excellent coverage for establishing or improving fine-textured lawns. Chewings Fescue is commonly used in shade-tolerant seed mixes, low-mow lawns, and sustainable landscapes where durability and beauty are equally important.
