Question
I am embarrassed to tell you - we spoke onSaturday and you told me what type of soil and seed to place over a sandy soil cape cod lawn and I scribbled it down while driving and the little piece of paper blew out the door
All I remembered was perennial rye and fescue
but not the soil type and what to be sure it was mixed with

Thank you so much

Answer
Kathleen,
Not to worry - I lose papers out of my car ALL the time.  In fact, my husband thinks that anything that's missing must be in my car somewhere, because he calls it the "Compost-mobile" but that is another story.

I told you that the best thing to use is a combination of loam and compost - most garden centers will have this. Use as deep a layer as you can afford - four inches or more!  And you remember right about the perennial rye and fescue mix - you may find mixes with both tall and fine fescues and that is fine.

all the best,
C.L.
