I want some of this grass. We have a combo of red & tall right now and it looks awful unless it rains.

Wonder when it will be available for commercial sale?

Comes it self-applicating fertilizer.

Sounds awesome.....especially the not mowing part!

Jackson Madnick didn’t “build” this new grass seed. Obama & the government did.

Dwarf mondo grass is great! You don’t have to mow it. It thrives in sun or dense shade. It’s drought, heat, cold and disease tolerant. It also tends to choke out other weeds.

From Ray Bradbury's Dandelion Wine:

Chapter 12 (The Lawns of Summer) — Another interception of Leo's story which re-focuses on the Spaulding family; Douglas' grandfather begins the day, happily reveling in the sound of the lawn mower running on their lawn, an indicator to him that summer has truly begun. Grandma, however, tells him that Bill Forrester, the man cutting their grass, is planning to plant new grass on their lawn that will only grow to a certain height, thus eliminating the need for lawn mowers. (Note: no such grass actually exists yet in the real world) Horrified at this, Grandpa gives Bill a firm lecture on how little things can matter more than the big ones, especially to experienced people like him. Bill attempts to change his mind, but only convinces Grandpa further of his position when he learns that the new grass will kill off the dandelions.

Grandpa finally pays Bill the cost of the grass flats in return for him not installing the flats in his lawn. He takes a nap and wakes up in the afternoon to find Bill cutting the lawn again, having learned to appreciate the "little things," thanks to Grandpa.

I wonder how it would hold up in a fenced yard with several Golden Retrievers having the run of the yard for much of the day.

“I mow it once a month, and my daughter never mows it because they’re too busy.”

I be very skeptical.
My lawn is infiltrated with Dallas grass, miss a week of cutting and you're looking at stuff 8 inches tall or better.

We have a heavily wooded back yard that’s nothing but clay, rocks and leaves. I’d be really interested to see if this product works. I looked online and there is a variation for shade. At $162. for a 25lb bag, it’s a little pricey, but might be worth a try. Thanks for the article link!

I have looked for it and not found it for sale in MN...I’m assuming winter here would kill it any way.
