FOR THE UK CLIMATE A1 Lawn grass seed is freshly harvested in the UK, professional grade & designed to work with the British weather. This ensures fast germination and a strong & healthy lawn. Perfect for new lawns, patch repair, over seeding, reseeding & thickening. Beware of Annual Ryegrass Many cheaper patch repair seeds include Annual Ryegrass which may grow fast, but only lives for a short time and does not come back every year, meaning you will need to reseed again. Where we use Ryegrass, we only use Pernenial Ryegrass which is hardy, tough, quick to germinate, and also continues to grow all year, every year. Only look for product that tells you what is in their seed blend, and make sure that blend does not include annual ryegrass. Beware of short-term savings for short-term grass. A1 Lawn grass seed is freshly harvested in the UK & designed to thrive in the British weather. This ensures fast germination & delivers a healthy lawn every year. Certified by DEFRA, FERA & SASA, it is rigorously tested to ensure the highest purity, best germination rates & strongest resistance from disease – however you plan to use it. How To Use Sowing A New Lawn or Patch Repair: Dig the soil over to a depth of 20 to 30cm and remove any large stones and weeds. Add topsoil if the soil is poor quality or uneven and rake level. At this point, we recommend our Pre-Seed Fertiliser and waiting one week before seeding. Sow at the recommended rate by hand or with a spreader and rake the seed in so it is just under the surface of the soil. Compact the surface by foot or by using a roller and water well straight away and continue until established. Overseeding or Thickening An Existing Lawn: We recommend using our Weed, Feed & Moss Killer first then wait eight weeks before seeding. Rake to remove any dead grass, moss and weeds and until the soil has loosened and is no longer compact. Sow at the recommended rate by hand or with a spreader and add a light layer of soil to improve germination and deter birds. Compact the surface by foot or by using a roller and water well straight away and continue until established.

All grass likes some sun and water - pine trees tend to shed a resin that grass does not like. It's not expensive so give it a trial **Q: What setting on a evergreen spreader on a existing lawn which I just want to recover patches due to moss which now left me patches on my lawn?** A: When over-seeding we would suggest sowing the seed by hand rather than using a spreader as some areas may need different amounts of seed compared to others. **Q: do you do 1Kg bags?** A: Hello, No sorry, it is only available in 5kg bags. Many thanks, A1Lawn **Q: The grass seed has arrived in a plain white bag, not branded A1 Lawn as in the photos. Is it genuine?** A: Good morning, Thank you so much for your message. sometimes our suppliers do run out of branded bags and we have to use plain until we get more branded bags re stocked. the important thing is the green label that's attached to the bad. if you would like to send us a picture of the green label we can take a look and confirm for you. hope this helps Kind regards A1 Lawn ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3 years and still germinates! Top quality lawn seed πŸ‘Œ *by A***K on 21 March 2026* I've just finished my first 5kg bag of these seeds three years later! Have successfully reseeded 4 different lawns with this mix with great results. Buying another one so I've got some to overseed my back lawn soon and have enough for future reseeding after scarifying. So much better than the stuff you buy in DIY stores don't waste your money elsewhere, buy A1! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good stuff *by M***A on 1 January 2026* Planted mid October started to appear 10 days later,also seeded a rough area of ground which had a shed on it for over 10 years very surprised at the amount of grass which grew ,I had my doubts that any would grow impressed ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent results in just over a month *by A***R on 22 June 2026* I used A1 grass seed to repair and reseed a lawn that was almost completely bare after some garden work. I sowed the seed on 20th May and by 22nd June I had a thick, green lawn covering almost the entire area. First pic is before using A1 seed, just after using a different brand, and the second pic is after mowing following the use of A1. Germination was quick and the grass established well, even in some more difficult spots around the edges. The colour is a healthy green and the lawn has responded well to its first mow. There are still a few thinner patches, but considering how bare the area was to start with, I’m extremely pleased with the results after just five weeks. The key was keeping the seedbed consistently moist during germination. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this seed to anyone starting a new lawn or repairing large bare patches. Very impressed with the coverage and growth rate. ## Frequently Bought Together - A1 Lawn - Shade & Drought Grass Seed, 5kg (140m2) - UK Fresh, Pet & Child Friendly - Ideal for Dry & Wet Soils, Patch Repair, Over Seeding, New Lawns & Thickening.
