1209.24.00.00 - Kentucky blue grass (Poa pratensis L.) seeds

This HTS classification, 1209.24.00.00, specifically designates seeds of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) intended for sowing. This category falls under the broader heading of "Seeds, fruits and spores of a kind used for sowing," and more narrowly, "Seeds of forage plants." These seeds are distinguished by their botanical identity and their primary use in establishing lawns, pastures, and other turf areas.

Within the "Seeds of forage plants" category, 1209.24.00.00 is differentiated from its siblings by the specific species of grass. For instance, it is distinct from 1209.21.00 (Alfalfa seeds), 1209.22 (Clover seeds), 1209.23.00 (Fescue seeds), and 1209.25.00 (Rye grass seeds). While all these are forage plant seeds, the classification hinges on the precise botanical identification of the species being imported or exported.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level requires a definitive identification of the seed as belonging to the *Poa pratensis L.* species and confirmation of its intended use for sowing. This ensures accurate duty assessment and compliance with trade regulations for agricultural commodities.
