I am about to bite the bullet and have my yard sodded. It is semi-shade and the Bermuda is dying out. I have heard about Buffalo grass and others that are low maintenance. I would not be apposed to something such as Buffalo grass, but I think the shade issue will not allow the water friendly grass to be an option. Any suggestions on a company to buy and have the sod laid. I have called around and the prices seem to be all over the place. At this point I am sure it will be Fescue or Zoysia. I am open to all ideas since I am not a lawn grass expert.
