A rich blue-green, velvety cool-season lawn with self-repairing growth, ideal for sunny, well-watered yards.
Kentucky bluegrass has a deep blue-green color and a velvety finish that many owners picture when they imagine a perfect lawn. It spreads by underground stems called rhizomes, so it slowly fills thin spots and repairs minor wear. In cool seasons it looks fantastic, and in the right place with the right care, it is a beautiful and durable turf.
In Middle Tennessee, bluegrass is at the warm edge of its comfort zone, so it needs more attention than fescue. It prefers sun, regular watering and good soil, and it can struggle in the deepest heat of July and August without irrigation. We help you decide whether bluegrass, a bluegrass and fescue blend or another grass suits your yard. When bluegrass is the right fit, we prepare the soil carefully, install it in the best season and give you a watering and mowing plan to keep it lush.
Bluegrass has a deep blue-green tone and fine texture that is at its finest in cooler weather.
Underground rhizomes spread sideways and fill thin spots over time, which helps it recover from minor wear.
It likes full sun and regular moisture, and it may go dormant or thin in summer heat without irrigation.
Many Tennessee yards do well with a blend that mixes bluegrass and fescue for color and heat tolerance.
