Why You’ll Love It
TrueGrass brings a natural prairie character to your lawn with grasses native to North America. Once established, it offers a drought-tolerant landscape with less frequent mowing and watering.
What’s in the Mix
- Texoka Buffalograss – A spreading grass that helps form connected ground cover over time.
- Blue Grama – A fine-textured bunchgrass with distinctive seedheads.
Where It Grows Best
- Plant Type: Warm-season perennial grasses
- Sun Exposure: Full sun
- Best Uses: Sunny, low-traffic lawns and natural landscapes
- Seasonal Color: Green during active warm-weather growth; typically turns straw-colored after frost and greens up as temperatures warm in spring
Expected Height & Mowing
Grass foliage generally reaches 4–10 inches, while Blue Grama seed stalks can rise to approximately 8–24 inches.
Leave unmowed for a natural look or mow occasionally for a more uniform finish.
Planting Instructions
When to Plant
Plant in warm soil, typically from late spring through early summer. Seed sown during a suitable dormant fall or winter planting window will wait for warmer conditions before germinating.
Planting on Bare Soil
- Remove existing vegetation and prepare a level, firm seedbed.
- Broadcast seed evenly, rake lightly to cover it, and press it into the soil.
Overseeding an Existing Lawn
- Focus on thin areas with exposed soil.
- Mow low, remove clippings and debris, and rake before spreading seed.
- Ensure good seed-to-soil contact. Dense existing grass can limit establishment.
Seeding Rate
- Bare dirt installation: 1 lb per 500 sq ft
- Overseeding: 1 lb per 1,000 sq ft
Germination & Establishment
Allow approximately 2–5 weeks for germination in warm soil. Cool temperatures can delay emergence.
Keep the seeded area consistently moist during early establishment. As roots develop, gradually transition to deeper, less frequent watering.
Seedlings need time to fill open spaces, and drought tolerance improves as the planting matures.
