Percentages from a representative guaranteed-analysis label or manufacturer spec — exact numbers vary slightly by lot.
Despite the “Turf Type Tall Fescue” name, the representative label is a five-species sun & shade blend led by perennial ryegrass (~34%) — tall fescue is only about a fifth of the bag.
The catalog does not verify the current composition — check the seed tag on your bag for the exact species and cultivar percentages, purity, weed seed, germination test date, lot, and net weight before relying on this panel.

Our Notes
GreenView is the consumer brand of Lebanon Seaboard Corporation — one of the largest professional turfgrass suppliers in the United States. Golf courses and sports fields buy Lebanon products by the pallet. The GreenView 'Pure Grass Seed' line is what Lebanon Seaboard considers good enough to carry their name directly to homeowners.
'Pure Grass Seed' is a meaningful distinction. The bag contains turf-type tall fescue cultivars and nothing else — no inert carrier material, no coatings, no filler species. The cultivar blend is drawn from elite fine-bladed turf-type fescues, specifically the narrow-leaf, dark-green varieties developed for aesthetic quality and disease resistance, not the wide-bladed coarse K31 pasture-type fescue that dominates most mass-market products. The visual difference is apparent at 10 feet — GreenView's turf looks finer, denser, and darker.
This is not a product that wins Amazon category rankings. At BSR ~13k it's invisible to most shoppers. Professional turf managers who know Lebanon Seaboard's pedigree reach for it; everyone else buys Scotts. That's their loss. The actual agronomic quality — cultivar selection, seed purity percentage, germination rate — is objectively superior to most mass-market alternatives.
Practical notes: turf-type tall fescue does not spread via rhizomes or stolons. Your stand density is what you seed; plan to overseed thin areas annually. Mow at 3-4 inches. Established plants are drought tolerant after a full season; seedlings need consistent moisture for 4-6 weeks. Plant in fall (soil 50-65°F) or early spring.
