Bermuda Grass in Virginia

wardd – posted 29 May 2002 19:05

What is the best Bermuda variety for sodding a new lawn in Williamsburg, VA? The majority of the lot receives direct sun for at least 5 hours/day. The lot has a slope in the front.

Do I need a special lawn mower or will my trusty old John Deere work fine?

Is their a drought tolerant Fescue for my area? I’m going with Bermuda because of water conservation.

Thanks,Don
