I have a large backyard that is perfect for entertaining but the ground stayed bare because it was surrounded with huge shade trees. After trying endless types of seeds this one finally stuck and I now have a full carpet looking lawn under a nice shade. The grass stays full and colorful and I am no longer embarrassed at the thought of setting my lawn chairs under the shade of the trees

Been using Scotts since I was 15 (am now 70). Have recommended more times than I can remember. This year the Sun & Shade mix and the EZ Seed failed to satisfy. After 55 years experience I claim to have some expertise. I just won't buy the seed again - will buy other products.

I purchased 3, 40lb bags to overseed my 16,000sq ft. lawn and to seed some bare spots that were created from work that was done when installing my new driveway. After the driveway was installed, the borders of the driveway were re-soiled with a good top soil and the area was seeded as directed. Ive had to overseed that area 3 times already and other places in the yard the seed was not germinating as well. A 40lb bag of this seed isn't cheap...each bag was approximately $107 at Lowes and I bought 3 bags. I went with the Scott's because of the name but now Im not sure if I should have went with Pinnacle. All the proper steps were taken to prepare the soil for the seeding and it's disappointing to have to re-seed several times. I also have a sprinkler system that was watering as directed. I guess its possible I just got a few bags from the same lot that had inert seed. Since I have a new lawn(installed last year), in the fall I will be overseeding again. This time I won't be using Scott's Sun and Shade in the fall and it's disappointing because I have been a Scott's product fan for years.

My wife and I bought a new house and the lawn was in bad shape so I put down some of the amazing grass seed and it is now a beautiful green lawn that we can admire and enjoy for years to come. I will begin my fertilizer treatments this fall so that next spring I have a happy green lawn. Thanks Scotts.

Had 16 yards of fresh loam delivered and spread in my yard on April 16 2018. Bought 3 scotts sun and shade 20lb bags of seed and 2 bags of turf builder starter fertilizer. Applied as directed on the bag and used a lawn roller to embed the seed in the soil. Watered as directed twice a day using a hand spray on my garden hose. I got nothing it did not germinate or grow the only grass I have is the grass that has grown through the soil we spread loam over. Was very disappointed in the products I purchased as they did not perform as needed

This product must stay moist for the seed to grow. In the hot, dry southwest, it took a lot of watering to grow these seeds. The first 2 plantings did not work very well due to not enough watering. If you have the time and energy to water frequently, I recommend this product.

I recently bought 5 - 20lb bags to overseed and re-seed my yard. I even aerated before hand. Everyday I look and there is no new grass where I re-seeded, and the spots I over seeded still look very thin. I followed the directions to a t, but nothing. At all. This was a huge waste of money and time, both of which I don't have much of.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this product a couple times to thicken and fill bare spots in my lawn. It works great after aerating the lawn or just heavily raking bare spots. Comes up fast and blends well with my other grass.
