Jonathan Green 1# Black Beauty Ultra

Jonathan Green Black Beauty Ultra Grass Seed gives homeowners and landscapers a chance to create a quality lawn just like the professionals. Being one of the most successful formulations of the Black Beauty series, this product is often picked by sod growers throughout the country because of its dark green shade, strength, and durable performance.

The black Beauty Ultra is dark green in color, and this is one of the most desired qualities of the product. As opposed to the lighter tones in standard seed mixes, this blend yields an intense dark green color, which instantly increases curb appeal. The grass is not piled up or thin, but forms a smooth carpet. 

Besides its breathtaking beauty, the natural waxy leaf cover decreases the amount of water evaporated into the atmosphere, which gives the turf a shiny look and enables it to remain moist longer.

Product Durability

Black Beauty Ultra will offer a great solution to homeowners who appreciate beauty and power in one. The combination is uniquely designed to resist heat, drought, and turf diseases. The deep root system and thick, waxy leaves make the lawn very strong even in very long dry seasons. In addition, disease resistance inherent in this seed formula means that the grass will retain its rich look without being undermined by the usual problems that affect the lawn.

Coverage and Usage

The 1-pound bag is best used to repair patches or small applications.

• It can cover 400 square feet of area.
• Good for revitalizing small portions of a lawn or patching out thin areas.
• The bigger bags can be used to cover more area, but the smaller 1-lb bag is convenient and effective for seeding the seed.

Planting Instructions

The best way to make Black Beauty give the best results is through the right procedures of lawn care.

• Best time to Sow: It should be planted in early fall, but spring will also work.
• Light: Works well in full sunlight but can tolerate semi-shady conditions.
• Soil Preparation: Clean, loose soil enhances contact of the seed with the soil and increases the rate of germination.
• Watering: During the first few weeks, light watering at intervals is recommended to help the roots grow well.
• Mowing: The grass should not be cut until it grows at least 3 inches, so the roots have time to grow.

Pros and Cons

Black Beauty® Ultra has a lot of great benefits. There are also some things homeowners need to know before buying.

Pros

• Unparalleled Curb appeal: The mixture creates a dark, even green lawn that boosts the curb appeal in an instant. Its high, rich color contrasts with regular grass seed blends to give off the appearance of a high-end, high-quality lawn.
• Built to Last: This seed has roots that grow up to 4 feet deep to enable the lawn to endure drought, heat, and stress of heavy usage. The inherent waxy layer on the leaves is useful to reduce water loss through evaporation, thereby trapping the moisture and giving the grass added strength.
• Fast Ground Coverage: Black Beauty Ultra has perennial ryegrass mixed in, thus providing rapid germination. New growth occurs frequently, 7-14 days later, on the lawn to fill bare areas and enhance the density of the lawn more rapidly than other blends.

Cons

• Requires Proper Preparation: The soil needs to be properly prepared and watering done regularly to help the soil produce the best outcome. Performance can be below expectations without adequate hydration during germination or sufficient seed-to-soil contact.
• May Take Longer to Fully Mature: Although the germination of the ryegrass is fast, the components of the tall fescue and bluegrass take longer to grow completely. It takes time to appreciate all the density and beauty of the mature lawn.

Summary

Jonathan Green Black Beauty Ultra not only gives you grass seed, but the seed is the foundation to a lawn that is more than just eye-catching. Its mixed formula is quick to set up, strong, and provides a smoky green tint that is hard to forget.
