LOOOOOVE this grass so far! Im in southern AZ so its tough to find grass that works- let alone year round so i dont have to do 2 different types of grass depending on the time of year. This grass lasted through the 100s and our "winter" so i think we found the winner!
Verified Purchase
Great product.
It's just over one week and there are baby shoots. This really gives me a great feeling about this grass seed. My gardener is super happy.

I plant grass every year and it never grows, this grass was coming out in less than two weeks. Best grass I've ever bought
