Overview

Get started on your yard goals with O.M. Scott and Sons Buffalograss Seed. This premium buffalograss seed is designed for southern U.S. and transition zone lawns, delivering a naturally drought-tolerant, green look as it establishes. Each 0.7 lb bag provides coverage suitable for new lawns or overseeding, helping you plan a DIY project with predictable options that fit your space and climate.

Why Buffalograss?

Buffalograss is a native warm-season grass known for resilience in warm climates. When established, it can demand less irrigation and maintenance while still forming a durable, even green carpet. This seed is crafted for easy incorporation into existing lawns or to start a new one, aligning with practical, regionally appropriate lawn care.

• Native to North America, well-suited for southern and transition zone conditions
• Low maintenance once established with reduced water needs
• Safe for use around kids and pets when used as directed
• Recyclable packaging supports eco-friendly disposal

Application timing and setup make this seed approachable for DIY homeowners. For best results, apply in late spring or early summer when the daily air temperature reaches about 70°F for two consecutive weeks. A 0.7 lb bag covers 350 sq ft when overseeding, or 175 sq ft for a new lawn. Use your Scotts spreader with the dial setting found on the bag to ensure even distribution.

How to Use and Care

Prepare the seed area, fill your spreader, and apply evenly. After seeding, keep the area consistently moist with daily light watering until sprouts appear, then continue for about two weeks after. Once established, you may enjoy a drought-tolerant lawn with less frequent irrigation.

What You Get and Packaging

The bag contains 0.7 lb of buffalograss seed. One bag provides 175 sq ft of new lawn coverage or 350 sq ft of overseeding coverage. The packaging is a recyclable paper bag, reflecting an eco-conscious choice for your yard project.

Tips for Best Results

• Apply during late spring to early summer when temperatures hover around 70°F
• Keep seed consistently moist for about two weeks after sprouts appear
• Follow the bag dial setting when using a spreader for even coverage
• Choose overseeding if you want to expand coverage up to 350 sq ft

Real-World Scenarios

Picture a sunny weekend project where seed is evenly spread, lightly watered, and monitored as tiny green blades begin to push through the soil. Over time, the drought-tolerant nature of buffalograss may help the lawn maintain color with mindful water use, while the recyclable packaging adds an eco-conscious finish to your yard goal.
