Choosing the right grass type for your North Texas lawn is crucial for a healthy, beautiful yard. The hot summers and occasional cold winters require grass varieties that can handle temperature extremes.
Top Grass Choices for Southlake and Surrounding Areas
Bermuda Grass
Bermuda grass is the most popular choice for North Texas lawns. It thrives in full sun, tolerates heat and drought, and recovers quickly from damage. Hybrid varieties like Tifway 419 offer a dense, carpet-like appearance perfect for upscale properties in Southlake and Westlake.
St. Augustine Grass
For properties with more shade, St. Augustine is an excellent choice. It has broader blades and creates a lush, tropical appearance. Varieties like Palmetto and Raleigh perform well in the DFW area.
Zoysia Grass
Zoysia offers the best of both worlds – it handles shade better than Bermuda while maintaining heat tolerance. It's slower growing, which means less mowing, but also slower to establish.
