Specifications:  NATIVE NO MOW SEED MIXTURE

Molate Creeping Red Fescue (Festuca rubra ‘Molate’). Perennial, cool season, fine textured native bunch grass that also spreads by rhizomes. An attractive ornamental grass either mown or unmown. Popular for natural landscapes and low maintenance buffer areas.

Western Mokelumne Fescue (Festuca occidentalis ‘Mokelumne’). Selection of Western Fescue from California. A bunch grass that grows up to 24 inches high. In sun to part shade. Deer resistant.

Idaho Fescue (Festuca idahoensis). Perennial, cool season native bunch grass. Native to Western North America and common in California. Densely clumping, long lived perennial grass growing 12-24 inches high.

SEEDING RATES
Suggested seeding rate for new establishment is 1.5 pounds per 1,000 square feet or 70 pounds per acre. Lighter rates can be used for overseeding depending on the existing stand.

ESTABLISHMENT
Best times for seeding are September through April. Summer seeding can be achieved with supplemental irrigation.
Weed control prior to seeding with glyphosate is recommended.
Seed-to-soil contact is critical for success either by seed drilling, hydroseeding or hand seeding with mulching.
In the absence of natural rainfall, short, frequent applications of water are necessary for 4-6 weeks.

CULTURAL INFORMATION

Water Requirements
The native grasses in this mixture will withstand prolonged periods of drought. If some green vegetation is desired then supplemental summer irrigation is necessary. If no summer irrigation is provided the grasses will become a dormant golden color and green up in the fall with rainfall. It is recommended that supplemental irrigation is supplied through one summer season in order for the grasses to establish deep root systems.

Climate Conditions 
This seed mixture is suitable for foothill, valley and coastal regions of California.

Soil Conditions
This mixture performs best in clay or sandy soils with a pH range of 5.5 to 8.5.

Fertilization
Use of a starter fertilizer when seeding is highly recommended. While fertilizer on native grasses is not critical it is recommended to promote growth and increase establishment. Fertilize during periods of active growth in Spring and Fall with a balanced fertilizer. Avoid using products with a high nitrogen (N) content as such use increases water usage. Apply no more than 4 pounds of N per 1,000 square feet per year.

Mowing
It is not necessary to mow this mixture but it can be mowed if a neater look is desired. Mowing height should be no lower than 2 inches. Never mow more than 1/3 of the leaf blade on a mowing cycle.

Could Be Better
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Tan
Look cute for a little while, then the toes peel as shown by other reviewers. It’s such a shame because my four year old LOVES the sparkly stars on the toes. I wish they made a more expensive version in a material that wouldn’t look worn so quickly.

Great boots for fall and winter, but too short for deep snow.
Size: 9 Toddler, Color: Navy
This is the second round of these boots I bought for my kids. They are comfortable for all day at school, like sneakers. Perfect for wet days, feet stay dry and warm. They are not snow boots. We live in Boston and they are not for more than an inch or two of snow. I buy separate true snow boots for snow days (much warmer and taller boots).

Perfect Winter Boots
Size: 8 Toddler, Color: Navy
I bought these for a trip to Iceland for my little one. They held up perfectly to lots of walking and playing! No break in period, and my little one was comfy the entire time! Warm happy feet is what you can expect with these boots!

Cute but not totally practical
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Navy
These are cute and decent quality but they are so short they aren’t practical if you live where there is snow. Deep snow just ends up in the boot. Great for cold but no snow or slightly wet and muddy days.
