Are certain types of grasses better suited than others?
Virginia is located in what horticulturalists call a transition area; there is no one grass that is better suited for this area than another. You can plant both cool season and warm season grasses, whichever you prefer. Just be sure to choose the right grass species for your lawn’s setting. Critical factors are water, light, temperature, soils and fertility, as well as how much time you have to manage your lawn.
