Kentucky Bluegrass

90% confidenceUpper Midwest - Cool Season

Editor's note

Identified as Kentucky Bluegrass with 90% confidence in Wisconsin's Upper Midwest cool-season zone. KBG is the dominant residential turf across the northern tier, prized for its self-repairing rhizomes and dense blue-green color. Wisconsin's cold winters and moderate summers are exactly the conditions KBG was bred for.

Care tips

  • Water deeply but infrequently, about 1 inch per week.
