With over 100 varieties of grass and several other types of hybrid sod, choosing the best one for your Arizona lawn can be a challenge. If you are new to the region or a novice landscaper, we can help you select the perfect grass for your Arizona lawn.

Seasonal Classification of Grass


Typically, the grass varieties can fall into one of the two categories; warm weather grass and cold weather grass. As the name suggests, warm-weather grasses respond favorably to warm weather and include varieties such as Bermuda grass (such as Midiron and Tifway) and St. Augustine grass. On the other hand, cold weather grasses grow fastest during the fall and spring seasons. The most popular types of cool-season grass are Kentucky Bluegrass and Tall Fescue.

3 Best Types of Grass for Your Arizona Lawn


Based on our skilled landscapers' experience with thousands of lawns around the valley, we suggest the following three best types of grass for your Arizona lawns.

Midiron


The attractive and low-maintenance turfgrass is the most widely used type of grass in Arizona lawns. The leaf's medium-coarse texture, along with a bluish-green tinge, makes it a perfect choice for Arizona lawns. Another reason that makes midiron one of Arizona lawns' best grass types is that it transitions smoothly from over-seeding during winter season. Moreover, it also get over from high traffic quickly. It is best to use a reel mower or a sharp rotary mower when mowing this type of grass.

Palmetto St Augustine


Another excellent choice for your Arizona lawn is the Palmetto St. Augustine grass. The semi-dwarf variety of glass is the best performer in shady conditions. Moreover, it can also thrive during the days and seasons with full sunlight. The soft-textured leaves are highly resistant to heat and sunlight and are therefore one of the best types of grass for your Arizona lawn. When mowing turf with Palmetto St. Augustine grass, make sure you always use a sharp rotary mower.

Tifway 419


Tifway is another best type of grass that you can work with for your Arizona lawns. It is highly durable and resistant to natural forces. Moreover, its dark green, medium fine-textured leaves give a great look to your lawn. And while tifway 419 is a popular choice for home lawns, it is an equally great option for golf courses and sports fields. You need to be extra careful when mowing Tifway 419 turf. Make sure you use a reel mower or a sharp rotary motor to give your lawn a perfectly manicured look.
