Benefits of Planting Lawn Grass Plugs
Lawn Grass plugs are one of the very best ways to get your
new lawn
established or fill in bare spots in an existing lawn. If you've wondered how to get a beautiful lawn started or renovated
without the hassle of seed or the expensive costs of sod then grass plugs are
for you. Lawn grass plugs are clumps of sod with soil and roots that have been lifted out of a stand of grass. Seedland sells high quality lawn grass plugs that have a
developed root system and are growing as individual 3" X 3" plugs.
Lawn grass plugs are easier to handle than sod. Our grass plugs are shipped in a convenient plastic tray in which they have been growing. You don't have to worry
about receiving plugs that are half dead because they were cut and then shipped the same day. Grass Plugs from Seedland are guaranteed to arrive fresh at your door. No pressure to plant immediately
--- just take them out of the box and leave them in a warm, sunlit area and water daily until your ready to plant. If you don't have time to use them all in one planting, you can leave
them in the tray and continue to water them daily until you have a chance to plant them -- within a reasonable period of time. We are not talking months here rather within a week or so.
Lawn grass plugs are easier to grow for the do-it-yourself landscaper. They have a complete root system, just like a bedding
plant. Since they are already growing they are much easier to keep alive, unlike when planting seeds where a multitude of variables
must be met in order for the seedlings to survive. Some varieties, such as Bermuda lawn grass plugs will establish quickly into a full lawn or cover bare spots in a lawn area.

Note: Color of pictures on your monitor should NOT be used as a judge for plug selection. Due to different computer monitor settings, colors will vary from monitor
to monitor. Sun exposure, soil type and fertility, time of year and lawn fertilization will determine the actual color of a grass which may be different from those viewed above.

*Note that Empire Zoysia is the only
warm season grass variety that we sell and recommend for planting in
transition zone areas where "cool season" grasses are normally
planted (Middle US States / AR, TN, VA, KY, MD, NC). That is because
Empire has
the most "cold tolerance" of the warm season grass plugs that we
offer. All of the other
plugs we sell are not recommended for northern US state areas. Please read note below on Empire Zoysia and planting in northern states.
*IMPORTANT NOTE: Empire Zoysia
may experience winter damage planted in areas where colder winter temperatures occur for extended time (10
degrees or less). States located north of Oklahoma, Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia,
Maryland and New Jersey may experience damage - We do NOT recommend Empire Zoysia for these northern
state areas as damage may include death of the plugs due to colder temperatures. Many factors determine the survival
of grass plugs.

Concerns When Planting Grass Plugs
- Planting Grass plugs can be labor intensive in that you must dig a hole or trenches for each plug planted. This job can be made easier by using our
grass plugger tool.
- It is not feasible to plant large areas with grass plugs due to the higher cost and labor involved -- seeding or sodding may be more feasible for a large area.
