Bahia

Bahia grass is a resilient turf option that thrives where other grasses may struggle. Known for developing a deep, widespread root system, Bahia performs well in sandy or low-nutrient soils, making it a smart choice for Florida landscapes with minimal upkeep.

This variety requires less water and fertilizer compared to other turf types, thanks to its natural drought tolerance. During extended dry periods, Bahia may go dormant and turn brown, but it quickly greens up once conditions improve. It also produces very little thatch and prefers slightly acidic soils, a pH around 5.5 is ideal.
