The right grass depends on your sun, soil and how you use the yard. Here's how our varieties compare.
Best for: Full sun, curb appeal, active yards
Rich color, dense growth and fast recovery from wear. The classic Long Island lawn, ideal for front yards and high-visibility spaces. Often blended with fescue to handle partial shade.
Best for: Shade, drought, low maintenance
Deep roots and a soft texture make tall fescue blends a smart pick for shaded lots under mature trees and for yards that dry out. Low maintenance and tough through Long Island summers.
Best for: Hot, sunny, high-traffic yards
Thick, carpet-like turf that handles heat, drought and heavy traffic, with slow growth that means less mowing. It goes tan earlier in fall and greens up later in spring than cool-season grass.
Best for: Yards that don't get full sun
Custom blends for lawns under trees or beside tall homes, where bluegrass alone would thin out. We match the mix to how much light your yard actually gets.
We'll help you weigh lawn use, maintenance and conditions, compare options side by side, and bring samples on request. Sandy South Shore yards, shaded North Shore lots and windy East End properties each call for something a little different.
