Konconstruct said:What is the best grass to grow in Savannah, Ga?
Very subjective...
Most turf grasses come with a lot of negative features.
For instance... Bermuda can have stolons several feet down, which makes it impossible to grow anything else once it's there. It also turns brown in the winter and during a drought.
Bahaia grows without any extra water inthe driest areas of the state even during the worst droughts... It also is easy to remove when you want to put in a flower border or plant vegetables. But.... People don't like it because it sends up bloom stalks every couple days.....
St Augustine and centipede are commonly planted turf grasses, but are water pigs. Centipede doesnt need fertilizing, and st Augustine is easily taken up when you want to plant flowers and veggies.
But.... All that wasted water! Forget it if you don't have a sprinkler system....
Best thing is if you have large trees in the yard..... Smart ecologically conscious people just allow the tree leaves to cover the yard as a neat mulch.
What does your yard look like now?
