Beautiful blue-green lawn

Planted this grass seed in the fall after properly prepping the soil. Lawn grew within 6 days, nice grass seed. Then in the spring my lawn was the first to green-up on the block. If you follow directions and prep the soil properly and do not let the seed dry up, you can't go wrong.

Weeds not grass

I must say, I had an incredibly disappointing experience with the Pennington Tall Fescue Grass Seed. It was, without a doubt, the worst grass seed I have ever used. I followed all the instructions diligently, planting it in late spring when the weather wasn't scorching hot and watering it twice a day as recommended. However, it took over a month for any signs of germination to appear, which was already frustrating. To my dismay, the results were far from what I had hoped for. Instead of a lush, green lawn, I now have half of my yard filled with stubborn weeds and the other half just barren dirt patches. It's incredibly disheartening to put in so much effort and money, only to end up with such a dismal outcome. Overall, I am extremely dissatisfied with the Pennington Tall Fescue Grass Seed. It failed to deliver on its promises, and I am left with a patchy mess instead of the beautiful lawn I envisioned. I will definitely be looking for a different grass seed brand in the future. Not happy at all with this purchase.

Redid my backyard.

Use Sun Shade blend. So far so good. Fingers crossed.

Seed for lawn

I have a large yard and I have always used Pennington grass seed. It comes in different types for your yard and it allows me to use the type I need.

Works every time

I have tried the other major brand but only the Pennington Seed delivers consistent results. Must keep it damp or buy the patch stuff they sell with the mulch added. Both work quickly.

best grass seed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this for both our front and back lawn and it is amazing. Grass grows well and even in shaded areas it does well

It works!

My seeds are growing! Definitely recommend this product. I used an overseeder to break up the soil. A spreader and peat moss with dirt. It rained and the grass seeds are growing like crazy!!

Very disappointed in Boston!

I put this seed down 3 weeks ago after meticulous preparation with all the basics covered while maintaining strict watering protocol. Not a single blade has appeared to germinate.

Very pleased in Central Florida

We planted between our properties. The area receives sun only three hours per day. The seeds sprouted on the eighth day, and was ready for mowing after the third week.
