Not all grass is created equal!
In this video, Michael Miller, Licensed Lawn Technician at Oasis Turf & Tree, explains how to choose the best turf grass for your lawn based on climate, texture, color, and resistance to disease and insects.
You’ll learn:
✅The three main climate zones in the U.S. (cold, warm & transition)
✅Why qualities like color, texture, shade tolerance, and insect/disease resistance matter when choosing grass
✅How grass types like Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, Bermuda, fine fescue, tall fescue, and turf-type tall fescue perform
✅Why turf-type tall fescue is the best option for lawns in the transition zone (Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, etc.)
✅How overseeding with high-quality grass seed builds a thicker, healthier lawn—and keeps weeds out
At Oasis Turf & Tree, we recommend turf-type tall fescue for our region because it’s durable, adaptable, and resistant to common lawn challenges. If you’d like more info or help with overseeding, reach out to our team or talk with your technician during your next service!
