The Perfect Bundle For those shady areas!

Ivisons Shade & Sunshine Grass Seed mix is a hard-wearing, shade-tolerant formula, specifically designed for those sunlight deprived areas where the grass struggles to grow, leaving your lawn looking patchy. Is your grass struggling to grow in areas of shade caused by trees, fences or buildings? Our Shade & Sunshine Mix is specifically designed, using shade tolerant grass species, to thrive in shady conditions.

Ivisons Pre Seed Fertiliser is your lawn's best friend! Applying Pre-Seed Fertiliser, 3 to 5 days before sowing grass seed or laying turf, will provide the soil with the essential nutrients allowing the seedlings/turf to establish strong roots to ensure your lawn gets off to the best possible start. The mini granules promote even distribution of nutrients over your lawn.

Please note if the fertiliser is applied during very hot temperatures, it can scorch your grass. We recommend applying Pre-Seed Fertiliser on a cool evening or when it is overcast.

More About the Mixtures: 

Grass Seed: Dwarf ryegrass is a specifically bred strain of perennial ryegrass, selected for its ability to produce a thicker sward than a standard ryegrass species and its shorter growth habits. It is quick to germinate, establishes quickly and tolerates shade very well. 

Fertiliser: This phosphate-rich fertiliser will provide your seedbed with the best foundation for establishing new seedlings as phosphorus aids healthy grassroots and shoots. The potassium content will help the grass become strong and hardy, fighting off any diseases that seedlings are susceptible to. The nitrogen will give your lawn the desired rich green look we all desire. 

This fertiliser is made up of homogenous granules. This means that each granule has the same nutrient analysis to ensure an even spread of nutrients across the sown area. With Cheaper blended fertilisers, the analysis is represented in the bag rather than each granular, which leads to an uneven spread of nutrients. Using a Blended fertiliser can lead to a patchy lawn, parts of your lawn may grow quicker than others and the colour of the grass may differ throughout.
