2 Lbs. Pensacola Bahia Grass Seed “Premium Grade”

Transform your land with Pensacola Bahia Grass Seed (Premium Grade) — the leading choice for pastures, lawns, and roadside seeding across the Southern U.S. Known for its deep roots, drought tolerance, and cold hardiness, Pensacola Bahia thrives where other grasses fail.

Originally discovered in 1935 by Ed Finlayson in Escambia County, Florida, this variety has become the most widely planted Bahia type, covering millions of acres throughout the Southeast. Its slender, deep-green leaves form a dense, durable turf ideal for forage, soil stabilization, and erosion control.

With roots that reach 7–10 feet deep, this grass tolerates poor soils, heat, and drought. It also grows well in colder climates, recovering quickly after frost. Grown from high-quality, Florida-sourced seed, Pensacola Bahia ensures better purity, fewer weeds, and stronger establishment than non-certified alternatives.
