All Season Lawn Seed

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right grass seed for my garden?

Think about how the space is used and the conditions it faces. For example, choose a hard-wearing mix for high foot traffic, a shade-tolerant mix for under trees or fences, and a fast growing mix if you want quick results. Each product has clear guidance to help you pick the best one.

Can I overseed my existing lawn with domestic grass seed?
