Learn the best ways to treat your grass type.
The right grass type can make lawn care a whole lot easier.
We frequently talk to people who don’t know what kind of grass they have in their lawn, or where to plant what type, so we hope to shed a little light on the different types of grasses we see in our service area (AR, FL, OK, TN, AL, GA, SC, and northern MS), as well as outline some of the pros and cons of each type.
Grasses are either warm-season grasses or cool-season grasses. Surprisingly, very few of the grasses grown in the United States are native to our country. Most were brought over from other countries and then adapted through new varieties and cultivars.

There are a multitude of grass varieties, but there are basically only 2 grass types: cool season type grasses and warm season type grasses. Below we list the most common types of grass found in the markets that we serve.
Warm season + full sun. A hardy full-sun grass that thrives in hot weather.
Warm season + full sun. A slow-growing, warm season grass native to China and SE Asia.
Warm season + full sun. A course, perennial, warm season grass.
Warm season + full sun. Zoysia grass is a fine to medium-textured warm season grass.
Cool season + shade. This cool season grass is recommended for shady lawns.
