Tall fescue

Tall fescue is a medium leaf, dark green, cool season trufgrass best
adapted to cooler climates in the upper-south and at sites in higher
elevations.
Tall fescue is noted for providing a year round green landscape.
Summer heat and disease are the two main problems associated
with maintaining a quality fescue lawn.
Fescue sod is produced at farms located in Perry & Macon Georgia.
Tall Fescue sod can be installed fall, winter and spring, but avoid
installing fescue in the summer.
