Preferred Climate Zones

All fescue grass is considered "cool season grasses". This is a technical term describing the best temperatures they grow in. While turf-type tall fescue grass can adapt to different temperature ranges and conditions, they grow best in cooler temperatures and climates. 

I grew a Turf Type Tall Fescue lawn in southern California. The humidity was low there and we didn't have water issues at the time. In the right conditions, with the right knowledge, you can grow this where other grasses struggle. 

The climate ranges of Turf Type Tall Fescue Grass Seed:

  • Transition Zone States
  • Northern States
  • Parts of California if Sufficient Water is Present
  • "Southern Blends" Do Better in the South
