Creeping Red Fescue (CRF) Grass

Question

I planted creeping red fescue (CRF) grass seed last summer. I have many bare spots…just “clumps” of grass. What grass seed could be mixed with CRF grass that would be close in color and will grow well in WV?

Answer 1

Kentucky Blue Grass is a good companion for Creeping Red Fescue.
Here are some links with more information.

I would also encourage you to talk with your County Extension Office.
They will have a list of turf choices that are specific to your region.

Here is a link to help you locate your nearest office.
