sharp sand and MPC.
Any recommendations on what type of see to buy?
I have googled for grass seed types but there is a whole host of
different types to choose from, so I thought I would ask here.
Thanks

Hi Bob
You need a fescue seed mix. If you look for a seed sold as a luxury/ornamental lawn seed mix or shade tolerant it will more than likely be 100% fescues. They are shade tolerant and deep rooting, so also drought tolerant.
