Please be aware that Tall Fescue is a Cool Season grass that is best installed when daytime temperatures range from 60 to 80 degrees and nighttime lows are below 60 degrees. Generally, this range for many of the areas we service is from September through April. The warmer and more humid it is outside when installed, the more it will struggle to root and survive the summer heat. Even with extensive watering and care there is a much higher likelihood of transition issues, leading to an increased need to re-sod and/or overseed in the fall. For these reasons, we recommend installing Tall Fescue during the cooler times of the year and will not guarantee suitability, survival or performance of Tall Fescue when installed outside of these parameters.
