Lawn Seeding
The Transition Zone
Tall Fescue
Bermuda
Zoysia
In Southwest Missouri we live in what’s called the Transition Zone for grass. This means it is difficult to grow one type of grass well, simply because we get the extreme heat of the summer and the harsh cold temperatures in winter. Cool season grass, such as Tall Fescue, thrives best in the cooler temperatures while warm season grass, such as Bermudagrass and Zoysia, thrives in the warmer weather. Because of this, we consider your lawns location in regards to sun, shade, and soil type.

A service that is designed to seed grass into an existing lawn to repair and/or thicken the lawn. A nice, thick lawn leaves little room for weeds to compete.
More About Seeding
Whether a lawn needs established, renovated, or thickened- following these principles will ensure success when planting grass seed.
- Plant grass seed at appropriate times (September 1st through October 15th for cool-season turf).
- Ensure good seed to soil contact through one or more of the following processes: aeration, dethatching, dragging, and/or rolling.
- Use a starter fertilizer at time of seeding (insure that the fertilizer is low in nitrogen)
- Keep soil moist until grass is established. Tass Fescue germinates 10-14 days when weather conditions are optimal. Ease into less frequent but deeper watering as grass establishes.
- Mow the grass when it reaches 3″ tall. Mow as needed, never taking off more than 1/3 of the grass blade at the time of each cut.
