Choosing the right seed is key to a successful hydroseeding project. Different sites and applications require different seed types, from residential lawns to commercial uses such as erosion control and highway projects.
Below is an overview of some of our most popular seed options we offer. This guide is designed to help you select the best seed for your project.
If you are unsure or need help our team is available to provide recommendations based on your specific needs.
Maya Bermuda
Maya Bermuda grass is a high-quality, warm-season turfgrass known for its dark green color, dense, carpet-like texture, and excellent performance in full sun, offering superior traffic tolerance, fast recovery, and good cold hardiness for its type, making it ideal for lawns, parks, and sports fields. It’s a turf-type variety that establishes quickly from seed and holds up well in heat and drought.
Key Characteristics:
- Color & Texture: Deep, dark green with a fine blade, creating a dense, soft feel.
- Establishment: Fast germination and establishment from seed, especially with coated seed.
- Traffic & Wear: Highly tolerant of heavy foot traffic and recovers quickly.
- Heat & Drought: Excellent resistance to heat and drought.
- Cold Tolerance: Surprisingly good cold hardiness for a Bermuda grass, surviving winters further north (like Virginia).
- Disease Resistance: Good resistance to common lawn diseases and weeds.
- Mowing: Adapts well to low mowing heights (1-2 inches) but benefits from slightly taller mowing in extreme heat for better drought tolerance.
- Uses: Lawns, parks, golf courses, athletic fields, commercial properties.
Performance:
- It’s a top-rated variety from the National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) trials.
- Features excellent spring green-up and good fall color retention.
In essence, Maya provides a premium, low-maintenance, and durable lawn solution for warm-season climates, offering a luxurious look with robust performance.
Native Mix 70% Buffalo grass 30% Blue Grama
Buffalograss and blue grama mix creates a beautiful, dense, low-maintenance turf for hot, dry areas, combining buffalo grass’s spreading habit with blue grama’s faster germination and finer texture for increased density and resilience, requiring minimal water, fertilizer, and mowing, and tolerating moderate traffic and poor soils. This warm-season native blend mimics the shortgrass prairie, offering a soft, uniform green carpet that greens up late and turns straw-colored in fall, perfect for xeriscaping.
Key Characteristics:
- Appearance: Fine-bladed, dense, uniform, with blue-green to light green color, creating a soft, attractive lawn.
- Performance: Extremely drought-tolerant, heat-tolerant, and requires very little water.
- Growth Habit: Warm-season perennials that spread by runners (buffalograss) and form dense sods, with blue grama acting as a nurse grass for better coverage.
- Maintenance: Low-input; needs infrequent mowing and minimal fertilizer.
- Soil & Site: Thrives in hot, sunny, dry conditions and various soil types, especially sandy soils, but struggles in shade.
- Seasonal Color: Greens up late in spring and turns golden/straw-colored after the first frost.
Benefits:
- Reduced Resources: Saves time and water compared to traditional lawns.
- Enhanced Density: The combination creates a thicker, more resilient turf.
- Natural Aesthetic: Provides a lush, native prairie look.
- Erosion Control: Excellent for stabilizing s
