Anyone know about Yuma?

Is it really lower growing requiring less mowing and is it really very aggressive? I need both of those qualities and my centipede grass is not being very aggressive after 2 years!

Thank you,

Its lower growing and denser than common bermuda, but the claim that it requires less mowing is completely false! It has a very rapid upright growth habit in warm weather. If you want somthing to hug the ground better without excessive mowing- go with a hybrid bermuda, or one of the newer seeded types,(Princess, Yukon, etc.)
