5 Star Fescue Grass Seed
By Tom on 04/19/2015
I purchased 5 Star after being told by a local garden center it would grow better than any sod type grass in my lawn due to my lot being very shaded. I initially planted the seed in the fall and it came up pretty well but followed up with heavy oveerseeding this past March and April. The lawn is now beatiful and the envy of the neighborhood. Seed is cheap to attain a great lawn so buy enough to seed sufficiently and overseed as needed. I also applied a starter type fertilizer.

Best Fescue seed hands down.

5 Star Fescue
By Barbara on 03/06/2017
Love this grass! Planted for the first time October 2016 in my more shady areas. I have horrible sandy dirt and nothing has worked. This grass came up in eight days ..... beautiful green! I was worried that it wouldn't make it through the winter even though Texas winters aren't horrible. It lightened in color but during February it started greening up - a deep green/blue color that is gorgeous - and it's growing again. I over-seeded last week (March 1) and planted a new section. It's all up, and the established section is starting to run. LOVE this product!! Going to order more. I have an acre that I am going to plant. Neighbors have said how pretty it is. I ordered and had the product within 5 days....love this company! Will continue using them....very pleased! :)

AMAZING
By Rebecca on 06/21/2017
I tried everything from sod to more expensive grass seeds. This stuff is amazing. Grew in 5-7 days in the heat of Oklahoma. Hopefully it won't die off in the winter since I planted it during the summer (not optimal time). DoMyOwn has great prices and awesome customer service.

5 Star Fescue Grass Seed
By Joel on 04/26/2014
The grass is in the process of growing. The great thing about this seed and Do My Own Pest Control is the price and the quick service. Fantastic service! Quick time that I received it and the price was the best I found. My local guy said two weeks and the price was $40.00 higher. Keep up the good work!

I have heard that there are types of fescue seed that are prone to fungus.
With fertilization and water, 5 Star Fescue Grass Seed Blend will provide healthy lawns. No care to minimal care is needed. It also performs well in shady areas, as long as it receives two to four hours of sunlight. 5-star has high disease resistance to brown patches of fungus which can occur in humid and hot areas along with being drought tolerant. Keep in mind that all grass seed must be tested, and there are expiration dates listed on the bag.

The 5 Star Fescue Grass Seed Blend would not be our recommendation for a winter grass in the Arizona area. We would recommend a Rye Grass for your winter season. Something like the Pennington Smart Seed Perennial Rye Blend. The best way to determine if this product would grow and establish well in your area would be to speak to somenone atyour Local Master Gardener center for what will thrive in your weather and environments conditions.

Or can you just throw out on ground Thank you for your help in this.
Yes, you would need to till the ground before planting grass seed such as 5 Star Fescue Grass Seed Blend. We have a video here that might help.
