The grass and Indian Hawthorne died on my front lawn. I had the soil tested-7.9. In Central Fl., gone in summer, and no irrigation. Is there any grass that I can plant?

There's really no turf type that will grow without summer irrigation in Florida. You might consider growing a drought tolerant groundcover such as perennial peanut instead of lawn. Wish I had more ideas to share.
