Drought Tolerant Grass Mix

The Phoenix Drought Tolerant Grass Mix is built around turf-type tall fescue, chosen for its fine leaf and dense shoot growth, which gives a thick, hard wearing lawn. That makes the mix a solid alternative to typical ryegrass mixtures on sites prone to dry spells.

Tall fescue roots deep, often reaching more than a metre once the lawn is established. That depth is what lets this mix cope with summer heat and drought while still tolerating the odd bout of waterlogging.

Once established, the mix also tolerates shade, not just full sun, which makes it a versatile, all-round choice rather than a specialist drought mix.

The Drought Tolerant Grass Mix is made up of:

• 30% Strong Creeping Red Fescue
• 60% “Turf” Tall Fescue
• 7% Smooth Stalked Meadow Grass
• 3% Common Bent

Recommended Sowing Rate: 40g/Sq.M
