Questions & Answers
I live in Phoenix Arizona is this the right seed if not what is
Yes Bermuda will work in Phoenix during the warm season. Bermuda is a warm season grass that like hot temps. Plant when your nights do not drop below 65 and your days are 75+. Thank you for your question.
Will this grass grow under pine trees?
Smart Seed Dense Shade is best planted during the spring and/or fall, when the daytime temperatures are between 70 to 75 degrees and no lower than 50 degrees at night. This grass seed product should be planted in areas that get two to four hours of sunlight per day. Thanks!
Hello, Is this a GMO seed? I've been happy with the product in the mid-Atlantic for several years in a shaded area (no direct sun), except that I've had to replant after each hot summer (no watering). Great growth when planting in early October. Thanks,
Thank you for your question and choosing out product. At Pennington, we use traditional plant breeding; all of our grass seed is GMO free.
what do you recommend for a fast growing seed to establish a new lawn to pass final inspection? I hate to spend the money on an annual rye grass if there's a more permanent option. I'm located central east coast Florida. thank you
We would recommend speaking to someone at your local garden center or Agricultural Extension Office for assistance. We suggest you have your soil tested first. Your local County Extension Office can do this for you and then make recommendations upon your soil. Thank you.
What is the best seed to last thru winter weather
Thank you for your question. Any of the cool season grasses, Perennial Rye, one of the fescues or Kentucky Bluegrass will survive winter temps if planted and established before the cold weather arrives. Annual Rye will last one season. The best time to plant any of these is about 45 days before you expect your first frost. This gives the grass time to establish a strong root system to carry it through the cold months. Temperatures 65-75 day time and not dropping below 50 at night.
This bag of bermuda grass seed is mixed 50/50 with Chewings Fescue grass seed. Fescue is not recommended for bermuda grass lawns. Why is the Chewings Fescue used in this mix?
We are sorry to hear that you had issues when planting the grass seed. Our seed is rigorously tested for both germination and weed control to ensure that it is only high- quality grass seed in our products. The fescue (germination as early as 5-14 days) is used as a companion grass to come up and hold the soil in place to give the Bermuda time to germinate (up to 30 days. Please reach out to discuss your experience with Customer Service at 1-800-285-7333. Thank you.
What’s the percentage of Burundi grass seed in a bag?
There is no Burundi grass in any of our Bermuda grasses according to our agronomist. Thank you for your question.
Is this a perennial seed
Thank you for your question. All of our grasses are perennials, unless it specifically states it is an annual ryegrass.
