Bluegrass

Submitted by peach on Tue, 12/05/2006 - 12:37.



A grass type that has been around for quite some time is the bluegrass. This type of grass has been used by people throughout the country for centuries in hopes of creating the perfect lawn. While the grass can be a bluer looking green color, bluegrass is still essentially the color green, like most grass is.

Bluegrass carries several advantages with it to the lawn owners who choose to use it. For one it has great density and color, as mentioned before. When properly taken care of, bluegrass creates a perfect lawn that is sure to get noticed by neighbors. In addition, it is perfect for sitting and running on. The grass is not too prickly to walk on with bare feet in the summer, nor is it so soft that it crumples under a human's skin.

Because bluegrass blends in well with other grass types, it is rare to see any lawn made entirely of bluegrass. This is somewhat due to the fact that keeping bluegrass healthy requires a good deal of fertilizer and water, not to mention time.

All in all, bluegrass is not a great grass choice to create a lawn completely off of, but it will make a solid addition to any backyard.
