Ideal for the northern and transition zones, Pennington The Rebels Tall Fescue has represented the finest quality of tall fescue on the market for decades. This grass is tough and supports strong grass growth. It has thick, deep, and dense roots that result in excellent drought and traffic tolerance. In areas of your yard that receive 4 to 6 hours of sunlight, plant these lawn seeds in early spring or early fall for lawn establishment and lawn repair, and see results in 8 to 16 days to help repair bare spots. This 7-pound bag covers up to 10,000 square feet for overseeding an existing lawn and 3,330 square feet for starting a new lawn from scratch. The Roots of the Rebels Brand dates back to 1979, when turf researchers at Rutgers University released a revolutionary new grass. Known as “Rebel,” it was the very first example of what's now known as turf-type tall fescue. Compared to traditional tall fescue, Rebel offered lower growth, finer texture, darker color and denser turf — plus the drought tolerance that makes turf-type tall fescue a homeowner favorite. Generations later, with up to 40 percent more roots than ordinary grass, The Rebels Brand Extended Root seed varieties represent the best turf-type tall fescue on the market. With roots like those, it's only natural that The Rebels Brand carries the Pennington name. Review: Excellent Product - I used this seed to improve the look of my lawn in late spring of 2025. I definitely missed the window and the seed did not germinate. However, this spring the seed did germinate and all I can say is WOW! My lawn is thick green and lush! Glad my user error worked!! Review: Over seeded and patched - In the areas I used it for patch it grew quickly and filled in well. It blended in well with the Kentucky bluegrass. I patched with the Fescue due to the high traffic across that area. Same color, thicker blades. In the areas I over seeded I have no idea. Although I frequently sit now on the porch and watch the grass grow I can't tell. I can tell you though Pennington is a good brand and I have always had good results with the brand. ## Features - Rebels is the original premium Tall Fescue lawn seed and it's still the best Tall Fescue on the market - This turf grass seed grows into tough grass with thick, deep and dense roots that will thrive through the toughest conditions - Pennington grass seed produces a darker, greener and denser lawn than Kentucky-31 and other tall fescues - This tall fescue seed requires 4 to 6 hours of sunlight - This turf type tall fescue grass seed withstands heavy traffic, insects, heat and drought for lower maintenance - See effects in 8 to 16 days with this lawn grass seed bag ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08QC7VV6J | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,004 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #10 in Grass Seed | | Brand | Pennington | | Brand Name | Pennington | | Color | Green | | Container Material | Plastic | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 3,220 Reviews | | Expected Blooming Period | Spring | | Expected Planting Period | Spring | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00021496022888 | | Included Components | Pennington The Rebels Tall Fescue Grass Seed Mix 7 lb | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Indoor/Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Type Name | Pennington The Rebels Tall Fescue Grass Seed Mix | | Item Weight | 7 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Central Garden & Pet | | Manufacturer Part Number | 100543729 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | If you are not satisfied, please let us know why and contact us about a refund.
