Pennington The Rebels Tall Fescue Grass Seed

Tall fescue is renowned for its remarkable adaptability to a wide range of climates, as well as its exceptional tolerance for cold, heat, drought, and shade. The Rebels Tall Fescue, offered by Pennington, has long been recognized as the pinnacle of tall fescue quality on the market. This grass is undoubtedly tough, boasting thick, deep, and dense roots that confer excellent drought and traffic tolerance.

In areas of your yard receiving 4 to 6 hours of sunlight, you can plant The Rebels Tall Fescue in early spring or early fall and witness results within 8 to 16 days. This 20-pound bag can cover up to 5,000 square feet for overseeding an existing lawn, or 1,660 square feet for establishing a new lawn from scratch.

The Rebels Brand's roots can be traced back to 1979, when turf researchers at Rutgers University released a groundbreaking new grass variety known as 'Rebel.' This was the first example of what is now recognized as turf-type tall fescue. Compared to traditional tall fescue, Rebel offered a lower growth habit, finer texture, darker color, and denser turf, while still maintaining the drought tolerance that makes turf-type tall fescue a homeowner favorite.

Generations later, the Rebels Brand Extended Root seed varieties continue to represent the pinnacle of turf-type tall fescue, with up to 40 percent more roots than ordinary grass. With such robust root systems, it's only natural that the Rebels Brand carries the prestigious Pennington name.

In summary, Rebels is the original premium Tall Fescue, and it remains the best Tall Fescue on the market. This tough grass thrives in a wide range of conditions, producing a darker, greener, and denser lawn than Kentucky-31 and other tall fescues. It grows well in partial shade to full sun, and in a wide range of soil types. The Rebels Tall Fescue is designed to withstand heavy traffic, insects, heat, and drought, requiring less maintenance. With a guaranteed growth rate and results visible in just 8 to 16 days, this 20-pound bag can cover up to 5,000 square feet, making it an excellent choice for both overseeding and new lawn establishment.
