TALL FESCUE (YEAR-ROUND)

Black Beauty™ is a 4-way blend with 3 varieties of fescue and 1 variety of blue grass. Black Beauty has a lustrous, dark green color and will outperform other blends of tall fescue. Black Beauty is constantly being upgraded with the newest and best varieties of turf type, tall fescue.

Tall Fescue is a cool season grass that performs best when temperatures are between 50 degrees Fahrenheit and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Fescue has somewhat of a coarse texture with long straight blades standing upright. Mowing heights vary from no less than 3", and no more than 5". The hotter and dryer the air, the taller you need to mow the grass.

Black Beauty™ produces a darker-green turf naturally. With improved disease resistance and drought tolerance, Black Beauty™ Grass redefines what a "green-lawn" is supposed to look like! The grass leaves possess an invisible waxy coating, very similar to what you'd find on an apple which helps to preserve moisture in the leaf and wards off stress from heat, cold, wind and disease. With roots that can grow up to four feet deep into the soil, it will improve any lawn it is over seeded into. This blend grows well in clay or sandy soils and in full sun or partial shade.

  • A compact pick-up truck will hold between 1/4-1/2 pallet.
