Its deep root system provides exceptional drought resistance, wear tolerance, and resilience against varying soil and climate conditions. Even without a specified named variety, Turf-Type

Tall Fescue is commonly a blend of high-quality endophyte-enhanced fescue seeds, offering improved pest resistance and reduced maintenance needs.
