Product Description

Tall fescue is valued for its adaptability to a wide range of climates and its tolerances for cold, heat, drought and shade. Ideal for the northern and transition zones, Pennington The Rebels Tall Fescue has represented the finest quality of tall fescue on the market for decades. This grass is tough. It has thick, deep, and dense roots that result in excellent drought and traffic tolerance. In areas of your yard that receive 4 to 6 hours of sunlight, plant it in early spring or early fall and see results in 8 to 16 days. This 7-pound bag covers up to 1,750 square feet for overseeding an existing lawn and 850 square feet for starting a new lawn from scratch. The Roots of the Rebels Brand dates back to 1979, when turf researchers at Rutgers University released a revolutionary new grass. Known as 'Rebel,' it was the very first example of what's now known as turf-type tall fescue. Compared to traditional tall fescue, Rebel offered lower growth, finer texture, darker color and denser turf — plus the drought tolerance that makes turf-type tall fescue a homeowner favorite. Generations later, with up to 40 percent more roots than ordinary grass, The Rebels Brand Extended Root seed varieties represent the best turf-type tall fescue on the market. With roots like those, it's only natural that The Rebels Brand carries the Pennington name.

Customers like the temperature of the grass seed. They say it thrives through the winter and grows strongly into a gorgeous lawn in about a month.

I like this seed, I don’t love it. I purchased a 3lb and 7lb bag for my 1000 sq ft area to seed. I live in a transition zone 5b. High desert (very dry, low humidity with little to no rain) and 7000 ft in elevation. (Northern NM)I spent a week prepping the area by hand tilling the soil and burnt the weeds prior with a weed torch.The window for seeding here is very small. I finished the prep on a Saturday with temps in the high 80’s and watered, seeded, start fertilized and covered with a frost cloth to keep the seedlings moist on Sunday when the weather dropped to the 70’s with lows in the 40’s. The last picture is today, day 27 since seeding Sept 9th. I watered 3 times a day and left the frost cloth covering on for about the first 2 weeks until I saw decent germination. Due to the environment here, straw covering doesn’t work because we get too much wind. A local greenhouse owner gave me the cloth tip a few years ago and it’s been a really successful way to seed here. It allows water, sunlight and air to penetrate through the frost cloth. I purchased 2 here on Amazon (10x50 feet I think they were).I would say germination was about 75%. I will fertilize and overseed again in the spring and fall next year. After that, I have a lot of clover to battle with. I’m satisfied with the results compared to the before but will probably move to a Scott’s rapid tall fescue next time I seed. I used a Scott’s “seeding” fertilizer with a pre-emergent for weeds that “supposedly” wont negatively effect the germination. I did still have tons of new clover come up but it didn’t appear to effect the germination rate of the tall fescue.Now, at day 27 I just have to water once a day-cut back last week. I still have to keep an eye on the weather as we do get freezes this time of year. I simply cover with the cloth until after day 45 (since seeding) at night if the temps get down to freezing. The cloth protects the new grass down to 21 degrees Fahrenheit. If you live in an easier climate with a better window, you will probably get better results than I did. It’s a difficult place to seed grass here but a learning process, none the less. I’m up for the challenge.

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2022
My little front lawn speaks for itself, no majic, sorcery, no fertilizer just regular dirt, no moss, zero trickery. I am a landscaper though, a real one, not the kind that preps and tills a area before seeding without making sure weeds won’t reappear which they will!!!!
When you till area that has maybe 10 weeds, what the tiller is doing is spreading over 1000 and planting the weeds seeds everywhere. Tilling is for breaking dirt up, when you till a weed you deposit seeds beneath the soil giving them a rich environment to grow. That is why you end up with more weeds than you ever had before. Weeds seeds and fescue seeds look very different I tried my hardest to find any other seed In my bag with no luck. I highly suggest spraying your favorite killer on the area rake the dead away, then sow your seeds. If your soil must be tilled, spray your favorite killer, then till, then wait a week for weeds to surface then spray again… then sow your seeds. I do not leave reviews I do not work for rebels grass seeds, I’m just here to tell you not everyone has a green thumb but anyones thumb can turn green. Also keep your seeds wet. All seeds for any plant need to germinate is water.. and warmth….no light ,no soil, they germinate within 4 days with no sun or soil inside a wet napkin ( try it). As you can see I had very good results these pics are the second cut. 150$ amazon lawnboy brand mower with a Matt I rigged behind to drag and lay the fescue down as I cut.
Good luck, this is a real review that will make your grass growing experience better with any seeds I’m not advocating for any brand, this is a seed planting lesson. I purchased another tall fescue to reseed, my lawn is beautiful but if u zoom in u can see one or 2 spots that need the reseed as expected with fescue on a new seeded lawn, this tall fescue does not spread like burm grass.
