Essential Products
We think everyone should have access to good quality, affordable grass seed that delivers on its promises.
That’s why we have an ongoing commitment to quality and why we never compromise our standards. We apply the same principles to our essential range as we do to all our other ranges, just with slightly different ingredients in the bag.
