What Grass Seed Should I Plant in Minnesota? Appropriate Turf Seed for Midwest Climates.









What is the grass you recommend for Minnesota?  The right seed for the best MN Turf. 









If you know what the pattern of the sun is in your yard you will want to plant grass seed based on that pattern. For instance at my home the back gets very little sun and the front gets plenty of sun. So I would suggest Kentucky Blue grass for the sunnier area and Perennial Rye. Sometimes in northern climates Fine Fescue is used in really shady grass areas.



What Weed Man Lawn Care of the Twin Cities uses. 

It is a pure blend 50/50 of Kentucky Bluegrass and Perennial Rye Grass. Kentucky Blue Grass is the Sun Mix, Perennial Rye Grass is the Shade Mix. These grass types are the best for the MN climate & seasons.


It may be difficult to find a pure blend at the Home Stores in Minnesota. Many have weed seeds and other multiple grass types mixed in which prevents the best grass system for our environment in the Minneapolis and St. Paul areas.
