I need a seed!

Hi!I have a "lawn" that is largely made up of paddock grass. I want to improve the grass quality by adding a grass seed that will enhance the lawn.Can you recommend a thrifty grass seed please that will suit our hilltop lawn that encounters wet winters and baking summer sun!

Many thanks!

Not an expert here but you could try something in the superstrike range put out by Tui,
The superstrike range have all kinds of grasses from sunbaked to shade.

You'd probably need a hardy mix: usually includes a rye and a fescue in the mix. Is your paddock grass Kikuyu! If so, you'd need I'm afraid to eliminate it to achieve a normal lawn. Kikuyu is wonderfully drought resistant, but doesn't mow down well because of its strong runners which can form pretty thick mats.

Hey thanks guys!
@ Lemming: no kikuyu.
@Baby L : cheers just looking the Tui range up.
