Product Description
Eretz Creeping Red Fescue is for its disease resistance, low-prostrate growth, improved dark-green color, and high shoot density. High endophyte levels result in excellent performance in mixed climates. Mix with additional seed varieties such as Perennial Ryegrass and/or fine fescues for a superb lawn. Does well in zones 1-7 (can be used annually in 8-10). Low maintenance, does not require much fertilizer, higher mowing depth recommended. Till ground before sowing, then firm soil & level. Spread seeds evenly. Rake/till gently into soil & cover. Keep soil moist until established. Best planted in Spring or Fall. New Lawn: 4-6lbs / 1,000 sq. ft; established lawn/re-seed: 2-4lbs / 1,000 sq. ft. Typical germination: 12-22 days

It’s pretty and green with very fine stems just as advertised…perfect for my mostly shaded lawn.
I also saved some seed over the winter and seeded some bare spots around the yard. It too has germumated and started to grow.
NOTE: Red Fescue is slow to germinate.... it takes AT LEAST 2 weeks. It is also slow to grow. (other grasses will be 2x taller in several weeks)
I like Red Fescue because it is low maintaince and shade tolerant. After it is established, it can 'heal' bald spots in my lawn. (for example, if I dig out a tree stump)
Red Fescue does need a SHARP, vacuuming, mower blade else it may not be cut by the mower. It is so fine that it will just lie down instead of getting mowed.
Red Fescue looks just fine if not mowed too. This is my plan for the steep area I planted last fall.... just let it do its thing and help hold the soil inplace.
