Cool weather grass....that's all I see. Unfortunately, my house additions took longer than expected to complete. Big surprise, right? Cost more too. Another shocker! Anyhoo, I'm now left with a nice big bare dirt area, or at least it will be bare dirt when I get all the bricklayers detritus cleaned up and get my gutter drains buried. So, any suggestions for getting some kind of grass going when the temperatures will be in the 80's? I'm not particular about grass types. My "lawn" is more-or-less continuous with an extended grassy field all around the house. The "lawn" may be a fescue, because it is pretty fine-bladed, but the "grass" in the field would be fine with me too, and where one starts and the other stops is a matter of opinion and varies each time I mow. And I don't mind clover and dandelions either. To me, it's all something to keep the dirt covered. I was wondering if I should plant some kind of cover grass, like annual rye or something, and wait until fall for the final grass planting. Sure would like to get something in to slow the erosion if we get more heavy rain.
