The Best Type of Grass Seeds to Use for Your Lawn in Omaha, NE.

With so many options for grass seed out there, the decision of what to fill your lawn with can seem difficult – but for those of us in Omaha, NE the answer is clear: a fescue blend is best. A blend of fescue grass seeds is the perfect choice as they have an excellent tolerance for a wide range of temperatures, essential in our area since we experience both cold winters and hot summers. It's also disease resistant so when disease eventually finds its way to your lawn and tries to take hold, fescue is less likely to be affected than other types of grass. To top it all off, fescue has great wear tolerance which allows it to bounce back quickly from foot traffic and machinery like lawn mowers. With all factors considered, a blend of fescue grass seeds is the perfect option for lawns in Omaha.

Fescue grass can tolerate the hot summers and cold winters we have in Omaha, NE.

Here in Omaha, NE we experience cold and snowy winters as well as hot and humid summers. This dichotomy means that if we seed with grass that is too firmly in one corner of warm-season or cool-season grass, we can run into some trouble.

With a blend of fescue grass in your lawn, you won't need to sweat it too much when temperatures lean heavily one way or the other since it has some grace!
