Hybrid Approach:
The core idea is to use a blend of grasses, some of which perform best in warm weather and others in cooler weather, ensuring that one type is always actively growing while the other is dormant.
Warm-Season Grasses:
These thrive in summer heat and go dormant (turn brown) in winter. Bermuda grass is a common warm-season component.
Cool-Season Grasses:
These flourish in cooler temperatures and can maintain green growth through winter. Perennial rye, Kentucky bluegrass, and tall fescue are examples of cool-season grasses included in these blends.
Year-Round Greenness:
The primary benefit is a consistently green and lush lawn throughout the year.
Heat and Cold Tolerance:
The blended grasses are selected for their ability to withstand both hot summers and cold winters.
