Green Velvet 450g Lawn Seed The Perfectionist

Beautiful and fine deep green luxury grass seed. Gives a dense lawnIf you want a deep green luxury lawn, this is great.Tolerates dappled shady areas well in my experience.Sprouts quickly and reliably if sown/spread with care and watered attentively whilst establishing.Despite last year's 2022 heatwave/drought/hosepipe ban, this grass has come back and survived fully intact.Best mix I have found for a premium/luxury lawn.Interesting to peruse the Barenbrug website who are grass specialists.

Where it has grown it's nice but patch despite reapplication. Hot weather hasn't helped tbf. Hoping it evens out over autumn and winter. We'll see what happens in spring.

We have 4 x rabbits who love the mow the lawn, literally have stopped using the flymo hover, and only use the strimmer these days as they mow the garden for us :DHalf the garden is in the shade, the other half isn't, they eat the grass all over and poo in patches which clumps the grass causing patches, also their urine stains and damages creating patches also.We have used fertilizer, miracle grow patch magic (it does work but not as good as this, but will come to that later), and other remedies to try and fix the patches and general gaps / growth issues in the lawn.We took them off the grass and spent two weeks trying to fix it, again.The patches were treated with "The easy fixer" which is similar to patch magic, but works about 50% better. After two weeks there are loads of little tiny grass shoots coming up in the patches, and elsewhere in the lawn (it was spread all over by the wind)....I used this, along with the evergreen lawn feed: https://www.amazon.co.uk/EverGreen-Spray-Feed-Lawn-Food/dp/B004RG2PD8/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1501432532&sr=8-10&keywords=evergreen+complete+4+in+1Also spinkled some rabbit droppings all over the garden as a natural fertilizer.The lawn is now 90% repaired, patchless and they are ready to go back mowing!! :DOf course, your results may vary, but I hope this review helps.

Pleased to see it does a very good job

We've recently moved into a new house with a fairly big garden. The garden was a bit overgrown and as we removed overgrown shrubs we exposed large areas where the lawn had died. I have a friend who recommended this brand of seed as the manufacturers are experts in their field (pun intended!) - I believe Barenbrug supply grass seed to sporting stadiums so they must know their stuff!I didn't exactly follow the instructions on the pack - I basically cleared the areas of weeds, raked over, gave the soil a bit of a soaking, scattered the seed by hand and then tossed some compost over the top and re-watered. I tried to keep everything watered daily but in practice there might have been a day or two missed.5 weeks on and the patches that I planted have a lovely thick, deep green covering of grass - the only problem is that the rest of my lawn now looks rubbish next to the new grass but that just means I'm going to have to order a bulk load of this stuff!Would highly recommend to anyone who want a lush, green and immaculately looking lawn with very little effort

I rarely write reviews (yeah right), but feel compelled to share my excitement and joy at seeing the first new blades of grass springing forth and hopefully multiplying! It's been just over a week since over seeding the lawn, and to be honest I had nearly given up hope - I know I know, not a very patient person!Anyway be interesting to see how it does, I have a very shady garden, and should things not go well, I will have to consider some other options - dare I say it ... artificial grass :((

I have got a few patches in my lawn so I purchased this.I used this in the first week in September. I did see a few shoots come up but but not as per the main product details. I did follow the instructions but not sure if trying this in September was too late.I will use this again this year and compare the results or as an alternative stop my dogs going on the lawn?

not a quick fix....bit like watching the kettle boil.....every time I looked out the window I expected miracles and the grass would be knee high. Some hope, however, with a little patience this produces a good lawn and a rich shade of green.. I have not rich soil beneath my lawn and had to cover with evergreen lawn soil before seeding. decent product but don't be too impatient when sowing initially.
