Over the centuries, fine fescues have been renowned for their survival under extreme conditions. They grow in infertile and dry soils, tolerate close mowing heights, deep shade and grow in places where turf is neglected, tortured and forgotten. In these areas, fescues endure.

Legacy blend is hard fescue grass seed, chewings fescue grass seed and creeping red fescue grass seed, specially blended for optimum performance under the highest turf grass management, or planted as a cover for naturalizing low maintenance or native settings.
