Background:

Shipping Department

Plant breeders have been successfully improving the quality of common lawn seed for over 40 years. Early Kentucky Bluegrass varieties like Merion and Baron changed the look of northern lawns. Pennfine and Manhattan perennial ryegrass were among the first fine textured ryegrasses in the early 1970's. More recently, turf type tall fescue varieties offered great improvement over K-31 tall fescue. Plant breeders have also improved warm season grasses like bermudagrass, buffalograss, zoysiagrass, and centipedegrass.

Improved turfgrass varieties are produced and marketed by wholesale seed companies, many located in the Pacific Northwest, where conditions are optimum for quality seed production. Wholesale seed marketing companies promote their varieties and sell to local and regional seed distribution companies, and national chain stores.

With over 500 improved varieties of turfgrass available, local seed suppliers and chain stores seldom carry more than 5% of the total varieties. Although this relative small seed selection is adequate for most situations, discriminating seed buyers in search of a perfect lawn are seldom able to purchase the specific varieties he or she desires.

SeedSuperStore.com brings it all together; independent third party advice, independent third party product evaluation, incredible product selection, unlimited seed mixing flexibility, and 24-hour Internet access.
