Editor's note
Identified as Bermudagrass with 85% confidence in Alabama's Southeast warm-season zone. Bermudagrass is the workhorse turf across the Deep South, dormant and tan from December through March, then aggressively green from April through October. Alabama is core Bermuda territory: long warm-season window, abundant rainfall, and the kind of summer heat that keeps cool-season grasses out.
Care tips
- Water deeply but infrequently, especially during dry spells.
- Mow at 1-2 inches for optimal health and appearance.
- Fertilize with nitrogen-rich fertilizer during the growing season.
