Eco Lawn and Dogs


We are happy with the eco lawn seed we planted. We killed our old grass by chopping it with a weed whacker and spraying it with roundup. We spread the eco lawn seed on top of the old dead lawn. The seed germinates fast if the temperature stays below 65 degrees. Winter or early spring are good times to spread eco-lawn seed in Orange County. This grass is drought tolerant and grows slow. People who mow their eco lawn only need to mow it once a month. People who prefer the natural look of a meadow never mow their eco lawn at all. The grass only grows nine inches and then folds over. This grass holds up nicely to our large dogs and cats playing on it.
