Sun and shade mix??

19 years ago

I plan to reseed a large area of my backyard in a couple of weeks. The poa trivialis seems to be taking over. I'm looking for a seed blend that will give me good disease resistance and look fairly nice. It doesn't have to look spectacular back there as long as it stands the heat better than the poa. The area ranges from 4 - 7 hours of sun daily during the Summer. Much less in the Fall. I'm working on having a tall fescue/kbg lawn in the front yard but been having some dollar spot problems lately. I was thinking of using something different in the back like the Lesco Sun & Shade mix I found at HD. It was composed of 1/3 perrennial rye, 1/3 KBG, 1/3 fine fescue (I think creeping red). Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated.
