Midnight Kentucky Bluegrass Seed.

Plant Rate of 2 - 3 lbs per 1,000 Sq. ft.

Midnight Kentucky Bluegrass is very dark green and, although they dont usually resume growth until late spring, tolerate high temperatures.

Kentucky bluegrass, a widely used perennial turfgrass in temperate and sub-arctic climates, is probably the most recognizable species in the U.S. Kentucky bluegrass is native to northern Asia; the mountains of Algeria and Morocco; and cool, open sites in Europe. The species gets its name from the origin of the early, commercially produced seed and its blue-green color. Leaf blades are V-shaped or flat and have a keel- or boat-shaped tip.

A light line can often be seen on each side of the central vein of the leaf blade. Plants grow best in fertile, well-drained soils in full sun or light, open shade.

Kentucky bluegrass establishes slowly from seed compared to perennial ryegrass and tall fescue. A relatively high water requirement; lack of establishment vigor; shallow root system; and limited shade, wear and soil acidity tolerance restrict the use of Kentucky bluegrass in Tennessee. Many sod producers plant a 90:10 (by weight) tall fescue: Kentucky bluegrass seed mixture.

Kentucky bluegrass is darker green than many varieties of improved, turf-type tall fescues. The strong rhizomes of Kentucky bluegrass can improve the tensile strength of sod. When weather is favorable, one Kentucky bluegrass plant can produce from 20 to 50 or more feet of rhizomes in five months.

3 of 5 Seed = Good/Shipping = BAD!! September 13, 2021
Reviewer: ROBERT HUBER from MORROW, OH United States  
The seed I get from Seed Ranch in the past is good quality.  Timing when to seed is important.  Seed Ranch website shows seed shipped.  UPS shows "Label Created".  Seed is being sold that is not in inventory.  Ordered 2 weeks ago, and UPS website has not changed!  This is the 2nd time seed-ranch delayed my order.  Can't wait to see how long I will have to wait this time.

5 of 5 Prompt shipping; clean quality seed September 6, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person  
Decided this was the year to over-seed my conventional KBG with Midnight KBG. Order shipped promptly and was delivered as promised. The seed was clean and high quality. Now I am anxiously waiting for the seed to germinate and grow.
