Our Delta Native Grassland Mix grass seed is an excellent sod lawn choice for a variety of applications. The Native Grassland Mix grass seed grows into a sod lawn with narrow grass blades that are fine and soft. The Native Grassland Mix grass seed also makes for a sod lawn with elegant green color.  The Delta Native Grassland Mix is sometimes used in ornamental gardens and landscapes because of its unique aesthetic.

Native Grassland Mix Seed Benefits

Native Grassland Mix Grass Seed Drought Tolerance

Like other California native sods and plants, the Native Grassland Mix grass seed makes for a sod lawn that provides increased drought tolerance. A drought-tolerant sod lawn will not only be cost-efficient but also save time and energy that would otherwise be spent watering. 

Native Grassland Mix Grass Seed Shade Tolerance

Unlike most turf types, the Native Grassland Mix grass seed will make for a sod lawn that prefers shady conditions. The Native Grassland Mix also tolerates full sun. The preference for shade and tolerance to full makes the Native Grassland Mix a unique turf type and an excellent choice for partially shaded areas and full sun. 

Native Grassland Mix Grass Seed Low Maintenance 

The Native Grassland Mix grass seed will germinate into a sod lawn that is slower growing when compared to other turf types. The California Native Grassland Mix is most often grown out due to its tall-bladed nature and aesthetic, decreasing mowing needs and making for a low-maintenance sod lawn. 

Planting Native Grassland Mix Grass Seed

Planting your Native Grassland Mix grass seed will be similar to installing a sod lawn. The area and soil should be prepped the same way. The preparation process for planting Native Grassland Mix grass seed entails removing whatever currently covers the area, tilling the soil and cleaning out waste, rocks, etc., then covering the area with fresh topsoil. A total of 1 yard of topsoil for every 200 sq ft is recommended. Once the area is prepped, it is ready to plant your Native Grassland Mix grass seed!

Watering Native Grassland Mix Sod Lawn

Watering a Native Grassland Mix grass seed lawn requires more watering during the first few weeks while the grass seed germinates and roots into the area.

Mowing Native Grassland Mix Sod Lawn

Mowing a Native Grassland Mix grass seed sod lawn will be infrequent due to its natural, tall aesthetic. The first mowing can be done once the sod lawn has fully grown. Be sure the area is dry before mowing and never mow more than 1/3 of the total height of the grass. 

Native Grassland Mix Grass Seed Blend
