There are a number of native grasses to Johnson County that are suitable for lawn use in Lenexa proper and the surrounding Johnson County area.
Here is a quick rundown on what to use and where in your particular situation;
Kentucky Bluegrass – In the past two decades, over 100 varietals of this hardy and resilient grass have been created. Although notoriously hard to start from seed – except under ideal conditions – it is extremely drought and pest resistant. It is an excellent choice for large sunlit lawns that will require little maintenance other than mowing.
Fescue – All 300 varieties of this grass are renowned among gardeners for their tolerance of shade, fescue has always been the “go to” grass of choice for inhospitable areas of a landscape. It has also been bred to resist insects, excessive heat, and drought.
Ryegrass – If you need to seed a patch of barren lawn and see it bloom in the shortest period, ryegrass should be your choice.
