All the staff at grow organic were outstanding! What a treasure! They helped with confirming they had what I needed, loaded the truck, helped me figure my taxation and even offered advice in the future for consulting about organic growing!
Awesome all the way around!!
Thanks again!!
I spread the seed in my garden. Feels great under foot, kids and dog love how cool it feels in the Summer.
Germinates quickly, within a week. Great coverage and minimal to no weeds. Hard to grow grass in desert climate and this did a phenomenal job of filling in gaps.
Easy to sow, sprouted within one week with a light cover of straw. I’ll be ordering more in fall.
This is the second time I have bought this seed. I love it. I worry about the bees so I always want some clover in the yard. I was happy to see how quickly it came up and I like that it is organic. Very happy with my purchase. Peaceful Valley is a good company with safe products.
