Maintenance Calendar for Fine Fescue Lawns

Five fine fescue taxa (strong creeping red fescue, slender creeping red fescue, Chewings fescue, hard fescue, and sheep fescue) are often grouped together and called "fine fescues." In this publication, part of a series, two Purdue experts provide information on optimum time periods for various maintenance practices required to manage a fine fescue lawn. See TURF-63-W, TURF-64-W, TURF-65-W, TURF-66-W, and TURF-67-W.
