The Lawn Association remedy for constantly failing lawns
The Lawn Association remedy for constantly failing lawns: If your lawn constantly fails, read on to learn why native grass never lets you down.
When we look at the UK from above, it’s green most of the time—a verdant landscape of plants, but mainly grass. And not just any grass, but native bents and fescues that thrive across the countryside with no human intervention.

Unfortunately, commercial seed suppliers won’t sell these grasses because they want you to buy non-native varieties that are guaranteed to fail—ensuring constant seed sales, of course. But have you ever seen anyone overseeding the countryside? Of course not! These native grasses have been in the UK for hundreds of thousands of years, flourishing without human interference.
So, which option do you think is greener and aligns with sustainable lawn care in today’s world?
Here at the Lawn Association, we worked to bring back these ‘old’ blends—once widely available but now hard to find. They require minimal input, improve poor soils, and spread naturally, making them perfect for our gardens.
Last year, sales took off as more people sought to escape the endless cycle of lawn failure. And with our water-saving solution, made from natural corn, thus reducing the water needed during germination, this approach is set to keep growing (no pun intended).
So, if you—or someone you know—struggle with a failing lawn despite endless effort, it’s possible you’ve been sowing a recipe for failure all along. Maybe it’s time for a change.
The Lawn Association range of grass seeds costs from £33
The Lawn Association Natural Water Conserver & Seed Germination Aid costs £15
