ProGreen Ultra Shade 25 lb
The “ultimate” shade seed mix. 30% creeping red fescue, 30% hard fescue, 15% bluegrass, 15% ryegrass and 10% Poa Supina bluegrass, the secret weapon. Poa Supina is a very aggressive variety that tolerates near darkness. Somewhat slow to establish but once it does... this blend will break the cycle of having to reseed those hard to establish shady areas every year.
