Marathon Seed – Advanced Marathon 2 Grass for Stunning Lawns

Marathon II is our top-tier dwarf tall fescue, offering superior strength and an elegant look. Marathon 2 grass, a key part of our marathon seed selection, features narrower leaves and higher density, giving your lawn a neat, carpet-like appearance. Its slower growth, especially in winter, supports consistent maintenance with fewer cuts.

Featuring Encore®, a next-gen “double dwarf” variety, Marathon II was developed solely for Southland Sod Farms and SoCal lawns. Key traits for marathon seed include compact growth, dark coloring, disease resistance, and fine leaf texture.

Now available as lite sod, Marathon II offers the same performance in a lighter, easier-to-handle version.
