Why is Eco-Lawn drought tolerant?
Eco-Lawn is drought tolerant for two reasons. First, it produces grass blades that are extremely thin. Typical lawn grass varieties have thick, succulent blades that require a great deal of water to maintain turf structure and health. The thin blades of Eco-Lawn’s fescues are less susceptible to desiccation. Eco-Lawn also has an exceptionally deep root system. Most lawns support roots a few inches in length, necessitating frequent watering. An established Eco-Lawn’s roots penetrate up to nine inches in hard pan clay and 14 inches in sandy soils, siphoning up residual subterranean moisture throughout the growing season.
