'Bella™' Bluegrass for shade and semi-shade is a truly revolutionary dwarf turf grass that requires 30% less water than traditional Bluegrass. 'Bella™' Bluegrass has roots reaching down 3-3 1/2 feet deep into the soil. Being a dwarf variety, 'Bella™' Bluegrass doesn't require mowing, as it completes its upward leaf growth by mid-June. 'Bella™' will retain it’s lovely dark blue-green color in fall, longer than many other turf selections and green up more quickly in the spring. It is extremely resistant to heat, drought and disease.
The grass blades grow to a height of only 2 to 3 inches. 'Bella™' Bluegrass stays green over a long stretch of the growing season from early spring into late fall. It is an excellent choice for both the full sun and part shade areas (80%) of your yard. This cool-season grass thrives in cold climates, yet is also excellent in warm climates (except the southernmost areas of the US). 'Bella™' is durable, versatile, and grows in most soil types including sand, sandy loam, clay or peat.
