Crooked Bend's Blue Eagle Kentucky bluegrass seed is a top-quality, pure grass seed that is completely untreated and free of any coatings or fillers. This makes it safe for pets and ensures that you are getting the highest quality grass seed on the market. When it comes to planting, the process is quick and effective with this elite bluegrass seed breed. Simply sprinkle the seeds by hand on the spot or lawn patch that you want to grow new grass in, or use a small handheld seeder like a Scotts spreader to evenly distribute the seeds. To protect the freshly sown seeds from becoming bird food, it is a good idea to cover them with hay or straw blankets until the seedlings have fully established their roots and begun to grow. During this early stage, it is important to keep the seedlings well-watered, unless you are fortunate enough to have natural rain that provides sufficient moisture. This will help the seedlings develop quickly and strongly in all types of weather, including cold climates, drought conditions, and hot, dry heat. Once the grass is established, it becomes a durable and resistant grass that can handle high traffic areas while still remaining luscious, long, and tall, even when trampled by children, horses, or goats. It is an excellent choice for use as livestock pasture, campground grassy lots, sports fields, residential yards, subdivisions, common areas, home owner associations, commercial lawns, public parks, and more. Its fast-growing nature makes it a great perineal grass seed for both beginner gardeners and expert green thumbs, and it helps to improve the health of topsoil with its dense, blue-green blanket of ground-cover vegetation. One of the great benefits of Blue Eagle Kentucky bluegrass is that it grows slowly once it is established, reducing the need for frequent lawn care and mowing. When mowing is necessary, the fine grass blades can be easily collected in a mulch bag or left on the ground. This 25 lb bag of grass seed covers an area of 8,335 square feet and is harvested in the state of Washington before being shipped to you from Michigan, USA.
