Is it time to re-think your lawn?
Maintaining a traditional lawn can be a resource-intensive process. West Coast Seeds offers solutions that support water-conscious xeriscaping and wildlife while resisting thatch buildup.
These eco-conscious options reduce the need for mowing, watering, and fertilizing while inviting beneficial insects to your garden. Some blends even flower, creating a beautiful, low-maintenance, eco-friendly lawn.
Create a lawn that fits your needs while being kinder to the environment.

Grow a lawn that’s sustainable, beautiful, and low-maintenance. Now’s the perfect time to take the next step toward transforming your outdoor space.
Notes: Establishing an alternative lawn may take more than one season. Mow and water as required. Clover goes dormant over winter and re-grows in spring. Lawn Solutions Blends with fescues will remain green in temperate climates over winter. When Micro Clover is mowed, its leaves grow smaller and more numerous, with fewer flowers than conventional clovers. For Lawn Solution blends that include wildflowers, allow the blend to reach 5” tall for maximum pollinator benefit, or mow monthly to 2½–3” for a manicured lawn look.
