Kentucky Bluegrass

A Prized Cool-Season Turfgrass

Kentucky bluegrass is a widely prized cool-season turfgrass used in home, professional turf, and sod applications. Because of its fine leaves, vibrant color, density, and excellent turf quality, many classify Kentucky bluegrass as the species that will provide the most ideal lawn. Due to its well-rounded characteristics, Kentucky bluegrass is a great fit for pure stands or multi-species blends.
