The Premier Chafer Resistant mix is formulated to naturally resist damage from chafer grub root feeding. This mix is composed of new generation turf type tall fescue and Microclover® brand white clover. Tall fescue has the deepest roots of all the cool season turfgrass species and studies have shown it resists damage from chafer grub feedings better than other species. Microclover® roots are not preferred by chafer grubs and Microclover® also supplies nitrogen to the surrounding plants so that your lawn stays healthy with little to no additional fertilizer requirements.

The Premier Tall Fescue mix is formulated to resist damage from chafer grub root feeding but without microclover. This mix is composed of new generation turf type tall fescue and Chantilly creeping red fescue. Tall fescue has the deepest roots of all the cool season turfgrass species and studies have shown it resists damage from chafer grub feedings better than other species. Tall fescue can thin out over time so the Chantilly creeping red fescue helps by growing laterally to spread and fill in the gaps.

The cellulose based mulch expands when water is applied to cover the seed and release fertilizer to assist in grass establishment. This is ideal for pet damaged spot repair or bare areas. The mulch helps to retain moisture and reduce the frequency of irrigation. Grandstand mix is typically spread by hand as the pelletized mulch is typically too large to pass through most spreaders.
