Plant the Right Seeds for a Beautiful Lawn

Having a beautiful, lush green lawn gives your home instant curb appeal. But a healthy yard goes beyond just looks, providing benefits like reduced soil erosion, groundwater filtration and more. With that in mind, Lowe’s can help you find the grass best suited to where you live. Grass types can be split into two main groups: warm-season grasses and cool-season grasses. If you live up North, then cool-season grasses grow better in that region. For the South, warm-season grasses thrive. So what types of grass actually fall into these buckets? Find out which grass turf varieties will suit your region.

Warm-Season Grasses
Bermuda Grass: A tough grass, Bermuda is exceptionally weed-resistant, can tolerate heavy foot traffic and survives those hot summer days where rain is scarce.

St. Augustine Grass: This type grows quickly and likes sandy soil. It has a high traffic tolerance, making it a great option for busy yards.

Zoysia Grass: Zoysia works best for yards that drain well and can handle high foot traffic — so bring on those outdoor activities.

Cool-Season Grasses
Kentucky Bluegrass: A top pick for Northern states, Kentucky Bluegrass showcases exceptional color and texture with the right growing conditions.

Fescue Grass: With several options that respond differently to heat, drought, shade and wear, make sure to look for the one that best fits your conditions.

Perennial Ryegrass: This type grows fast, can be found in grass seed mixes and is ideal for overseeding warm-season lawns to maintain green color in cooler months.

Looking for additional lawn options? Look no further. Just bought a new construction house but your lawn is just dirt? Consider sod to establish your lawn quickly. There’s also the option of installing fake grass. Artificial grass can save a lot of the hassle of growing and maintaining a real lawn. Whether growing your lawn from scratch, trying to bolster it back into health or looking to go the artificial route, Lowe’s is here to ensure your yard flourishes.
