Super Shade Fine Fescue Blend

 

Super Shade is a versatile blend of fine fescues. It performs admirably in medium to dense shade areas, however, will do very well in low maintenance environmentally sensitive areas. Areas include home lawns, parks, reclamation, roadsides, cemeteries, golf course roughs and commercial sites. Little to no maintenance is generally the key to enhancing fine fescue performance. Although Super Shade has superior low maintenance qualities, this blend is not traffic tolerant.
