Description Bermuda grass seed (Cynodon dactylon) is a warm-season grass that grows well in many soil types. It spreads quickly by stolons and rhizomes to cover your lawn. It does well in heat and drought and tolerates salt and foot traffic. This grass turns brown when temperatures drop below 12°C but will green up again in spring. It prefers full sun and needs only moderate care. You can plant new lawns using 12 grams of seed per square meter and overseed with 10 grams per square meter. Germination happens in about a week. Mowing height starts from 1 cm.
