It may be spam, but it may be a legitimate question. The OP joined recently, but not the same day as posting this and has asked a few questions on several forums. This could be a case of somebody finding a website advertising a "miracle grass" and wondering if it is as good as it seems. In case it's a legitimate question and not spam, I followed the link and took a look at it. It looks like the grass is just a blend of various fine, hard and chewings fescues (red fescues are fine fescues and sheep fescue is a hard fescue). The red fescues will spread to fill in bare spots, although they will spread more slowly than KBG. The others are all bunch grasses, although sheep fecue will tiller aggressively if it is mowed. Fescues use less water than KBG, although in most of the US, they'll need at least a little water in the hottest, driest part of the year. The exception to that is the sheep fescue. It is supposed to stay green even in my area with little or no additional water. In my opinion, there's probably nothing wrong with this grass seed, but there's nothing spectacular about it, either. Of course, I'm a little biased in what I consider to be a low water use lawn. Of the grasses in the Eco Lawn, the only one that I'm using is the sheep fescue. The others all use too much water. The other two grasses I'm using are western wheatgrass and streambank wheatgrass. I'm doing my own seed mixes, but if I were going to use a commercial mix, I'd probably use one of the ones from BioGrass Sod Farms. Unfortunately, they don't give details about what is in their mixes, but they're also willing to do custom mixes. Of course, my mix and the mixes from BioGrass would probably fail miserably in most of the country, because they not only don't need much water, they can't live if they get too much (too much being something like 20 inches of precipitation a year, near the lower end of most of the grasses in the Eco-Lawn mix). On the bright side, my grasses do great in high pH soil. They need very little water to stay green and even less to stay alive. And they are so salt tolerant that I tossed some seeds down where some sidewalk salt spilled and sat for a week before I found out about it. I didn't expect much, but I noticed the other day that there is grass sprouting there.

I don't think there's a gas fireplace out there that will heat the large space you have with the heat loss through all that glass unless it's on all day long.

I used Amerock Westerly pulls. I could have purchased them in bulk from Amazon, but I paid a little more to order through the plumbing supply place because they gave me a really good price on all the big stuff I ordered through them. The price was still decent though. If you can find a style or two you like, you can then google a bit to compare prices or find a find a very similar style.

That is why your lawn tractor has head lights ;-) I always "Loved" to go to work in the dark and come home in the dark. I was "great" for my mood. I remember one year when we were living in Indianapolis, I had to raking leaves in the dark. The good thing was that the limited light from the house allowed me to better see how the leaves reacted in the air stream from the blower. Knowing this I became more efficient in blowing leaves.
