Payment methods


Combat Extreme™ Transition Zone Grass Seed three way turf type fescue grass seed blend that produces grass with fine to medium leaf blades which allow it to form a dense turf. This seed blend has lower growing cultivars. Combat Extreme™ is a great lawn seed for shady areas, something that warm season grasses cannot provide. This fescue grass seed blend produces grass with superior heat and drought tolerance and makes Combat Extreme™ grass seed an excellent choice for professional or home use.


Three Combat Blends To Optimize Varieties:

Each Combat Extreme mixture will perform well outside of the given zone. For example, there is no reason you could not use Combat Extreme™ Transition Zone in USDA Zone 8 or Combat Extreme™ Northern Zone in USDA 6. These USDA Zones are given as optimal guidelines, but not as fixed rules.

Unlike other turf type fescue grass seeds, Combat Extreme has the ability to repair itself. Traditional tall fescue grass seeds will clump together, not filling in the bare spots and producing an uneven lawn. With bare spots, weeds are more apt to take over the lawn. What makes Combat Extreme™ grass seed unique is its ability to fill in these open areas with aggressive tillering.

Honky Tonk - The quality level of Honky Tonk sets a new milestone with finer leaf texture, increased shoot density yet not compromising the wear tolerance. There are no limits to the use of this variety for mixtures for sports, amenity or extensive purposes - in the private sphere, public areas or for turf professionals!

Annihilator - is a new and improved, heat and disease resistant tall fescue variety developed for superior turf quality across a wide area of adaptation. Annihilator is a dark green, moderately fine textured variety that exhibits excellent wear tolerance, improved turf density and resistance to Brown Patch. It quickly forms a strong dense turf because of its rhizomatous root system. Annihilator is endophyte enhanced for added disease resistance.

Chanelle - This turf type fescue grass was developed for areas with high traffic requiring low maintenance. It will maintain its superior turf quality under less than optimum conditions. It has exceptional resistance to Brown Patch disease. Chanelle is widely adapted to varying climatic conditions.

Rhizing Moon or Bloodhound - These are new and improved, heat and disease resistant tall fescue varieties developed for superior turf quality across a wide area of adaptation. They are both dark green, moderately fine textured varieties that exhibit excellent wear tolerance, improved turf density and resistance to Brown Patch. They quickly forms a strong dense turf because of their rhizomatous root system. They are endophyte enhanced for added disease resistance.

Barbarian - It is a top choice for home lawns, parks and playing fields and is recommended for permanent turf in full or partial shade on golf course roughs, out-of-bounds areas and low maintenance sites. It can be used in poly-specie grass seed mixtures maintained at a moderate height of cut. Can be used in dry temperate regions in addition to hot and humid regions with excellent results.

Roman - It is a rugged variety that performs well in a wide variety of soil types and management regimes without sacrificing turf quality. It has excellent drought performance. Roman is durable for high traffic and has good shade and cold tolerance as well.

Starfire IIThis tall fescue has fine texture, vigorous growth and dark green color. It has great drought tolerance and exceptional adaptation to shade and heat. Use in lawns, playgrounds, parks or cemeteries. Drought tolerant, wear tolerant, salt tolerant.

Warhawk - An outstanding tall fescue variety that produces a beautiful dark green turf. It has exceptional disease resistance and dought tolerance. It has the ability to self-repair by spreading rhizomes, so it can maintain a thicker turf. For this reason, it is a great choice for home lawns, sports fields, and other high traffic areas.

  • Knits the lawn grass together
  • Quickly fills in damaged or open spots with new shoots of grass
Strong, deep root system
  • Ability to draw its moisture from a deep profile
  • Excellent drought and heat tolerant with less irrigation
  • Excellent in the transition zone climate
Produces a thick even lawn grass
  • Ability to repair itself through tillering– repairs open areas within a lawn
Excellent color and disease resistant
  • Withstands stressful weather conditions

Rapid germination and quick spring green-up
  • Quickly establishing grass seed
  • Early spring green-up – have a greener lawn earlier in the spring then other grass seeds
Higher value for the home owner than conventional tall fescue grass seed
  • Ordinary tall fescue grass seeds require maintenance from over-seeding, weed problems, and clumps. Combat Extreme™ Cold Climate grass seed results in less over-seeding, fewer weed problems and no "wide-leafed ugly clumps" of tall fescue plants in open areas.

Blending fescue grass seed varieties together that have top performance on some of the desired characteristics allows the lawn to adapt itself to various conditions. In the shady areas, the grass seed varieties with good shade tolerance will prevail, in the high traffic areas the best wear tolerant grass seed varieties will prevail, etc. The result is a beautiful lawn grass everywhere, from the same seed blend.
