I was at the farm/corporate location in Oregon in July of 2022 an was told that the mix was to provide quick germination with the taller fescue and to provide stabilization for the rizone type grass while it established itself. I think these features would be beneficial for a new lawn if true. I bought and planted as overseed so I can't really tell for sure how that would work on a new lawn. In theory the rizone variety will choke out the other types of weeds and grasses. It seemed to take a little longer to germinate than others but seems to have survived winter decently so I am anxious to see lawn mid April and how well it tolerates Oklahoma summers. Hope this helps. **Q: Climate: Will it do well with sub zero winters?** A: It’s been two years and I’m pretty happy with it! We have had two very cold winters (snow, ice, cold winds) and it handled them quite well! **Q: Is it the pure rtf tall fescue seeds or the blends?** A: It is a blend. **Q: Endophyte free?** A: The TURF SAVER RTF is NOT endophyte free. Barenbrug does sell an Equine product that is marketed as endophyte free. ## Frequently Bought Together - Barenbrug Turf Saver RTF Grass Seed with Yellow Jacket Seed Coating - Less Water Self-Repairing Tall Fescue Turf for Use on Sports Field, Golf Courses, Parks, Lawns, and Yard (10 LB Bag) - Barenbrug Turf Star Regenerating Perennial Ryegrass Lawn Seed with Yellow Jacket Seed Coating, Fast-Acting Durable Grass Seed Mix for Lawns, 10-lb.
