It has a rough and tough texture and the narrow leaves don\u2019t get easily trampled or deformed. Moreover, this turf grass is light green in color and is perfect for lawns, parks, sidewalks, etc. It is also quite easy to maintain and does not require a lot of care. However, it can be easily damaged due to high temperatures. Therefore it is important that a bit of shade is provided.<\/p>

Just like Zoysia, Bermuda is also very rough and tough, which makes it more durable and less of a bother to maintain. It can also survive easily in droughts and extreme temperatures. Maintaining this grass is not an issue. However, it may require a bit more of your attention during winter as you would have to mix it with other types of grass including ryegrass in order to keep it from invading your flowerbeds.<\/p>
