About Mow-Less Dwarf Tall Fescue

Mow-Less is a blend of the latest generation of dwarf tall fescues. Today, Mow-Less is composed of approximately 1/3 each of three improved turf type varieties selected for low growing characteristics. As newer, improved varieties are developed and released they will be included in Mow-Less. (Note: Varieties included in mixture subject to change.)

Establishment of Mow-Less Fescue

Recommended seeding rate is 8-10 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. Cover seed to a depth of no more than 1/4". Keep seedlings moist until well rooted.

The first mowing can be expected after 30 days, or when the grass blades reach a length of 3". Mow back to 2" until turf is established. Mow-Less will perform well at mowing heights as low as 1". Limited use of the area can be expected in six weeks.

The components of Mow-Less all contribute dark blue-green color, heat, drought, shade and insect tolerance... naturally! Mow-Less has made inroads into areas where tall fescue has not traditionally been adapted. Is this the start of something big? We think it's the start of something small... with a big savings in mowing! Let's not discount the benefits to our environment and our families by less water usage a

Usage For Mow-Less Fescue Blend

Mow-Less is blended to become a versatile, sturdy turf ideally suited for sod production, home lawns, athletic fields, parks, golf course roughs, industrial campuses, roadside enhancement, airstrips and campsites.

Tall fescue, when mixed with 5% improved Kentucky bluegrass makes a luxurious turf for sod production and home lawns.

Mow-Less appears to be ideal for golf tees where it will stand the low cut and repair divots with- out reseeding. The components of Mow-Less have done very well at Hubbard, Oregon for several years when mowed at 3/8".

Maintenance Of Mow Less Fescue Lawns

Mow-Less has a low-to-moderate nitrogen requirement with 2-3 lbs. of actual N per 1,000 sq. ft. adequate in most situations. With its moderate growth habit, Mow-Less thrives with a 1-1/2 to 2-1/2" cut. Mow-Less Blend requires significantly less water than perennial rye-grass and Kentucky bluegrass to maintain a lush, green vigorous stand.

Dark blue-green Mow-Less blend stands out against a Southern California background. Drought and heat tolerant Mow-Less offers year-around color in areas not before considered possible. Mow-Less contains Matador "Dwarf Fescue" for reduced vertical growth
