Sorry guys, I forgot to address shade and sun tolerance!!! Bermuda LOVES full sun, St. Augustine is more shade tolerant. That also means that most folks with full sun St. Aug will have to water a lot more compared to full sun Bermuda. Thanks for watching!
@Vistallion just depends on rainfall and what my lawn looks like it needs. Typically I water 2x a week during the summertime.

This is beautiful
What type of Bermudagrass is that?
@@JamesA88it’s a Sta-Green Blend from Lowe’s. The blend is made of the Sultan and Mohawk varieties.
I just bought a house, and am figuring out lawn stuff through RUclips, and have been watching a lot of the big RUclipsr guys but this is the first time I had to leave a comment. Your yard is centerfold material.
I’m honored. Thank you! 🤙🏼
What did you wind up going with for your area?
Very cool contrast of the two grasses. Super creative and easy on the eyes
Thanks for watching!!
I like the contrast between the two grasses and how it outlines the play area. Looks great!
Thanks, I appreciate it!!
This was so helpful, thank you! I’m a year 55 old single Mom with two dogs and big yard and my St. Augustine got diseased this summer and now I have mudd and muddy dogs and don’t know a thing about grass. But this really helped for me to know better what I need to do, thanks
Badass backyard. That's awesome having the two grasses!
It’s a blessing and a curse sometimes! 🤣
Such a great job on that separation
Thanks!!
I learned a lot from this video. I'm a rookie when it comes to grass and videos like this are a lifesaver. Thanks!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate the positive feedback- and I hope you continue to follow the progress on my channel!
You're the man Don!! Thanks brother
Oh wow thank you for this. I live in Houston and converting to Bermuda. This visual is priceless
Thank you for watching!! 🤙🏼
Me too... I’m in Houston and the Bermuda definitely seems like the best option for our type of weather
@@AllegedlyAlyce for sure! Bermuda loves heat, sun, and frequent mowing and feeding.
Bermuda is ugly
At Augustin loves water
I’m currently in the process of edging an area to do this for my daughters play area. Had I not stumbled across your video, I would have never thought about this genius idea and my St Augustine would die a slow painful death caused by my 3 year old and her toys. Thank you!!!
You’re very welcome!! Thanks for watching!
Helpful! I'm from Arizona, have family in Louisiana, and recently moved to Michigan. I've noticed Bermuda in Arizona and lots of St. Augustine in Louisiana. This video answered a lot of my questions about grass in varying climates!
Thanks for watching!
🌞Man, I love that look! It looks like a golf green. Great video, and explanation of the two grass types!🌞
Thanks a ton, I've really enjoyed making my lawn into something so enjoyable!
This man knows his stuff! Great presentation.
Thank you, I appreciate the support!
That's a beautiful lawn! Love the contrast between what St Augustine and the Bermuda!
Thank you for the support! 💪🏻
Love the landscape!
I live in a neighborhood where the surrounding houses, they don't really care for their turf. Weeds are everywhere and it always makes it's way into my yard.
I have been having a similar issue this past year due to an abundance of weed pressure next door. 😅 best of luck!!
@@donslawns1 Is it even worth the extra work? Can it be done if you're surrounded by weeds?
@@SouthoftheHill I think my lawn is pretty great, the few weeds and all. The whole point in having a nice lawn is to enjoy it!
that is a pretty cool turf design. Love the palm.
Thank you!
Nice presentation of information. I am also in Texas and it is a comfort to understand the difference quickly between to two types of grass.
Thanks for watching! 🤙🏼
Just installed some Bermudan grass on my front yard! Looks great 👍🏼
Best of luck!
You have the best of both worlds.
I have to agree with you. 🤣 thanks for watching!
Great video and great idea having both in your lawn. I love the idea of a border. I have 5 diffrent cultivars in my lawn .
The greatest battle is between the St Augustine and bermuda.
Here in Va the St Augustine usually will win out.
Thanks for the supportive comment!
Looks good Don 👍🏾
Thanks man!!! 🤙🏼
Your lawn looks beautiful!! Thank you for the video!!
This is great! I was thinking about seeding my entire lawn with Bermuda because my kids love to trample the St Augustine we currently have😅 the layout you have looks great and wears very well!
Thank you!! Seeding can be a pain sometimes, definitely look at prices for sod if you want a lawn quick! Best of luck!
Don that Bermuda and St. Aug visual looks amazing. A drone shot would be awesome. Keep up the good work my friend 👊
Thanks, I appreciate it! My drone skills are not like my lawn skills, so I haven’t took that plunge. 😂🤣
Don’s Lawns I don’t blame you one bit. I’m in the same boat
I have never seen anything like this...we have St. Augustine in the backyard & Bermuda in the front. We live in central California...all our neighbors have fescue🤮. We are the envy of the neighborhood simply because it looks like carpet. We do fertilize & reseed as needed in addition to winter care regardless of it going dormant. Your yard looks cool 😎. Greeting from sunny California 😎🌞.
That’s awesome!! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the comment. I live in nor cal and want to try Bermuda. Especially for the front yard.
I bought bermuda blend seed from vigoro I live in Palmdale California once i tilled it with cow manure blend I watered it twice per day for a month wow it germinated fast I love bermuda grass I even fed it with used coffee grounds
That’s awesome!! I love it because it can take a beating and recover pretty fast!!
The Bermuda seems perfect for a Slip n Slide for my kids
It’s great!
You have a beautiful lawn great job
Thanks for the support!! 👏🏼
just wanna say. that lawn.... beautiful.
Thanks for the support!!!
Thanks for this tips buddy. 😁👍 now I know what to choose for my backyard which I Shall turn into my dogs' turf.
Glad the video was helpful! 🤙🏼
That lawn is amazing! I thought it was a putting green in the yard! Very very interesting to see two amazing grass types
Thank you! Working on expanding the Bermuda some more! 😎
@@donslawns1 awe… that’s what I have. Next year I’m going to look at renovating the back yard and put a better quality Bermuda grass
Dude this looks so legit. I love it
Thank you!! It has definitely been an adventure. 😎
Love it man!! Thank you for the video! Im such a big fan of thick blades but i see why someone would need a grass like Bermuda. Thank you for the content 💛🌱⛅👍
For sure!! I love that I get to have the best of both worlds! Thanks for the support! 😎
Great information, I was always confused about what type of grass I have here in Florida, now I know for sure. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! 💪🏻
GREAT VIDEO.KEPT IT SIMPLE.
Thank you!
It really does look good. That was a great project that turned out awesome. Good breakdown bro!
Thank you sir!! I appreciate the support as always. I’m hoping I can keep my Bermuda looking as good as yours! 😅
@@donslawns1 already is!
Word up homie
Man that looks good. I tried doing that both needed too much care for me. I split the difference and went with Zoysia.
Zoysia is a great grass, kind of the best of both worlds! Thanks for watching!
i manage a boutique hotel in south florida, and we started trying to grow an area of bermuda grass a little less than a year ago. Our soil is essentially sand (a block from the beach) and unfortunately we were in the daylight savings half of the year and the half the lawn didn’t get direct sun so it was a struggle. but now that we’re beginning spring it’s really starting to take off. i just had to cut it! 😁
That’s awesome!!
Ok thank you I’m in NC
Wow. I just love the way your Bermuda grass looks. It almost has the look of artificial turf. I live in So. Ca, near Palm Springs. It gets extremely hot in the summer and I have very hard soil. Would Bermuda do well in drought and heat conditions? Thx
We have clay/hard ground as well, hot summers with little to no rain. A little irrigation helps keep the lawn green, but the Bermuda eats up the heat. 🤙🏼
This is exactly the video I was looking for. Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Great video brother
Thank you! 🤘🏼
I live 10 miles inland in Southern California. So I see a few summer days over 100. A few years ago, it got up to 112 and 117 one week. I have Bermuda for front lawn and my neighbor has St. Augustine. I keep it at about 1" tall. Although I fertilize and weed, mine rarely looks awesome. Most of the time, it looks blah. Conversely, my neighbor's St. Augustine looks stellar year-round. And it looks even better when he fertilizes. His hasn't been de-thatched in 20+ years, so he needs to do that because the thatching is really thick.
I view Bermuda as a invasive weed. I hate it. I'd love to get rid of it ... but you never really get rid of it. So the next house I get, I will grow St. Augustine (presuming there isn't already Bermuda there). I tried Marathon in the back yard, but our summers are just too hot for it. Also, the Bermuda that I thought I killed ended up re-growing and taking over the Marathon. Fuggin' Bermuda!!!
#1- your neighbor shouldn’t dethatch his st. aug!
#2- I have many days over 100 in summer, and the Bermuda does great! Maybe you need to adjust your watering schedule?
Thanks for watching!
@@donslawns1 I wanted to give you an update. I scalped my Bermuda about 6 weeks ago (first time I've done that). Now, it is absolutely beautiful at 1/2"! 'The reason it had always looked so bad is because I never cut it lower than 1.5".
@@jakemarlow8998 glad you took the plunge! 💪🏻
Beautiful lawn!
Thank you! 🤙🏼
Dude... That is freakin beautiful!!! You just got a new subscriber!!!
Awesome, thank you! 😎🤙
@@donslawns1 .. I wanted to do this as well but with zeon zoysia and tiftuff bermuda..
thimitri1 that would be awesome!
That’s some nice Bermuda dude! Another advantage is you can turn your backyard into a putting green w/Bermuda like I did:)
That’s exactly what I do with mine too! 😎
@@donslawns1 I was gonna say it looks like you certainly could. Brought in some good dirt and some sand and bought a manual reel mower but mine was only about a 25x15 kidney shaped green next to a swimming pool, a pitching mound, and a basketball court, so it was hard to keep it nice w/the kids:)
That’s awesome!
U have a very nice lawn..if prefer the lo maintenance..water only for my st Augustine
Nice!!
Excellent video
Thanks for watching! 🤙🏼
Nice project you thought of.
Good job.
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Lol that acyually looks kinda good that way 😂
Thank you! It definitely adds something to the back lawn, kinda spices it up. 🤘🏼
awesome, great information..
Thanks for watching!!
No dog pisses on my lawn☠️ Im buying bermuda sod. Thanks for the vid made my mind up.
Glad I could help!!
Both types look awesome. Love the look of both of them together. Hopefully you can keep them separate.
I appreciate you watching! I hope to keep them under control to an extent, but if anything- the Bermuda will probably extend it's reach into the remainder of the lawn!
@@donslawns1 That's what I'm wondering. How do you control the Bermuda grass when it's so resilient? It's like a weed.
@@rollthers3157 you really can’t. You can try the mowing tall to give the advantage to St. Aug, and you can try using atrazine (Bermuda is prone to it)- but ultimately Bermuda will spread underground via rhizomes. 😳
@@rollthers3157 currently I continue to weed eat/edge the perimeter to create an “air barrier” between the 2 grasses. That helps deter some of the crossover.
@@donslawns1 Thank you. Is there any kind of grass that can out muscle the bermuda?
Perfect lawn 👍
Thank you! 😎
Maaaate looking the goods! Best of both worlds. Any signs yet of the Bermuda creeping up and under yet? You sure are keeping that edge nice!
Thanks brotha!!! There have been some signs of Bermuda mixing into the Aug, but I’m thinking it was already there!
I recently purchased a home and they put down st. Augustine and then we had a drought so watering was restricted, and I think somehow Bermuda was either in the ground previously or something, but it seems like the Bermuda has over taken the back yard, but not the front yard. I’m new to this so I thought it was weeds initially, but after research I see it’s Bermuda. Idk if I should just buy Bermuda seeds and spread them without the wife knowing or just keep watering and occasionally fertilize. Idk what to do but my new yard needs work.
The two grasses will cohabitate fine, I would just focus on getting the lawn healthy and strong. Once you get Bermuda- it’s almost impossible to get rid of it. 😂
Both lawns look awesome 👌
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching Grace!!
Here in Baton Rouge St. Augustine takes over anything
I quit edging the Bermuda area and it definitely creeped into the edges of my Bermuda, but not a takeover by any means. I have since started hand pulling some stolons to push the St. Aug back out.
Yep, just installed St Augustine in the backyard and I should have went with bermuda. oh wells.
Hopefully your St. Augustine turns out great!
I’ve got Bahia and I want to over seed with Bermuda. I want similar looking and for my lawn to get thicker
I don’t have any experience with Bahia, but I know Bermuda will definitely fill in the gaps and can get thick! Best of luck!
Let the Bermudagrass take the whole yard...
Your weather is probably hot enough to stay green all year long.
Awesome video, by the way.
👍😎👍
Yep!! Stayed green until the big freeze in February! Thanks for watching!!
Will bermuda grass thrive in northern Florida without being water or really taken care of?
Bermuda can thrive with little care!
Lived in one house in the Houston area with a St Augustine yard for 12 years. It was a super thick carpet of something between a forest and emerald green. Other than mulch mowing it, we did jack all to it. No fertilizer. Hardly ever watered it. Except maybe when we did the slip-n-slide thing. Or that Fun Fountain clown thing. The only area we ever had die back was under a tire-swing. That yard seemed pretty indestructible with 6 kids plus neighborhood kids thrashing about. I'm at a loss for why you lawn guys seem to describe St Augustine as more or less delicate. Come to think of it. We also more of less didn't have any weed problems. But then again. You had to pry apart the 1/4 inch root shield under the grass blades to get to soil. That probably wasn't conducive to weeds. So maybe the yard flooding that seemed to happen every 3 to 4 years or so had something to do with it. Replenished a lot of nutrients in the soil or something? Honestly, no clue. But that yard defies most of what I hear about St. Augustine.
There’s also something to be said about the age of the lawn. Most younger lawns haven’t developed the resiliency and root system of an older lawn. I think that has a lot to do with it as well!
Great info! I'm jealous of your warm season grass. That bermuda is looking awesome!
Thanks bro!! Bermuda is a beast, and it keeps me busy! 😅
Nice vid mate
Thanks bro!
How can you have a park in your backyard without the grass diyng where the kids step in?!!
Bermuda is much more resilient and tolerant to traffic!
I was hoping to see tru the whole video a close up of bermuda and never happened i dont know why.
Sorry!
I have St. Aug and wanted to put Bermuda in the backyard. I was just worried that it would get run over by the St. Aug. Very cool to see both separated in one yard! Great looking lawn.
Thank you!
You should be more worried the other way around lol.
@@jeffklaubo3168 exactly!
So I am attempting this project. I didn’t too well on spraying the St. Aug. They are coming back from the dead like a Frankin lawn! So now that the Bermuda has germinated I also have St. Augs sprouting up. No choice but to pluck those St. Augs out everyday. But I am loving the Bermuda that I can cut super low!
Great information. How do you control the Bermuda grass from getting inside the edge where you have the palm tree? I have Bermuda and I hate it because it's too aggressive in penetrating into flower beds.
So far I’ve just been keeping it edged with my string trimmer! I’ve found a couple sprouts here and there popping up- but I just pull them/trim them. I’m not sure how long it will last!
Spray Atrazine on the St Augustine edge. It will prevent Bermuda from creeping in. Kill Bermuda inside St Augustine with Atrazine + Ethofusemate mix.
I agree, and the root system grows like a vine. It's hard to get rid of.
Can Bermuda grass be kept taller? I like my grass to be a little taller. But everything you're saying about the Bermuda is appealing to me, other than that 5/8" thing.
Bermuda can be grown at a variety of heights! Football fields are usually grown to 1-2”, and golf courses are grown to cm lengths.
Thank you!
You are tempting me to try out Bermuda. I seeded with Kentucky Bluegarss two seasons ago and I like it. But the patches I was left with is not filling in as fast as I would like.
Depending on your location, Bermuda may be a better fit!
My Bermuda is mix with Augustine and other grass. I'm trying to get rid of the other grasses. I just want Bermuda. any suggestions
Quinclorac is pretty safe for Bermuda. You can find it on the yardmastery website (linked in the description), or at other major lawncare supply stores. DoMyOwn.com has good options too.
It after watching this I’m like why the hell does everyone get st Augustine, Bermuda seems the way to go
Some people really like the look of St. Aug! Thanks for watching!
My parents have had St. Augustine in Central Florida for 25 years and it’s lovely in their lawn! So soft, so dark green, and one of the few lawns in their neighborhood that doesn’t brown during winter.
@@lostinsnakes we average a couple freezes in the winter, which usually shuts down everyone’s yard. The Bermuda typically wakes up a lot quicker than the St. Augustine though.
I have re planted Bermuda in some of my shaded areas several times and it dies every time. So in my shaded areas I am putting St Augustine.
Is it safe to use Scotts weed and feed on Bermuda grass? I know if there's a heavy amount of things like crab grass etc. and weed grass, it will totally brown it, but does Bermuda grass resist a weed and feed treatment? Or does it just need to stay healthy with fertilizer to keep the weeds out?
You need to check the bag; some weed and feeds are safe for Bermuda, but some are not. A healthy stand of grass, and Pre-emergent are the best options to avoid weeds in the lawn. Hope that helps!
Which bermuda grass seed did you use
I used the Sta-Green brand from Lowe’s, easy to find and commercially available!
Hey Don, did you lay down sod or use seed for your Bermuda?
I seeded with a Bermuda blend from Lowe’s. 👍🏼
Thanks , I’m trying to figure out which grass is the best for my yard because I have bulldogs. Unfortunately they have almost destroyed my backyard. They are exactly just like Billy goats. Every time I turn around they are chewing up big clumps of grass and eating it. I’m like hey this isn’t the Ponderosa where they have a all you can eat salad bar. Makes me so mad, I’ve actually had to buy chicken wire and partition off 80 percent of my yard just so they don’t completely annihilate everything.
I’d go with Bermuda since it can grow and replenish so fast! The fine texture is very soft on the feet also! 👍🏼
Nice grass types Don the best of both worlds. But how do you keep your dogs 🐕 from Peeing on it ?
I can’t prevent them from peeing… But I’ve been able to keep them from pooping on the Bermuda! 🤣 Usually chase em off if I catch them!
what state are you in? what month was this video created?
Looks like this video was made in August of 2020. I am located along the coast in south Texas.
Great looking backyard! I have st augustine in my front yard for 5 years now and love how it blocks out weeds. Except this year! Dollarweed has been trying to invade, any recommendations on a weed killer that can be used in California? Every Southern lawn weed killer isn't sold or delivered here.
Thanks for the support! I’d consider going to do my own (online diy site) and search dollarweed. They should have products listed that can be shipped to your location. Good luck!!
Can you please share what Nitrogen products you use for the Bermuda grass?
Lately I’ve been using liquid fertilizers like “Spoon Juice” from YardMastery. I’ve also used Walmart brand granular fertilizers and had good results!
Is the Bermuda from seed or sod ? What type of bumuda seed?
I used Bermuda seed from Lowe’s. The Sta-Green blend I used had Sahara and Sultan seeds.
I like how you mentioned that you don’t water your Bermuda for a week. I’ll seldom water my Bermuda lawn outside of the rain and it wont even budge
I’ve also noticed Bermuda likes the natural rainfall way more! 👍🏼 Thanks for watching!
Can you recommend a good Bermuda seed? I hear there not all the same
Honestly, I’d go with what you can afford for the project. I used sta-green seed from lowe’s and it turned out pretty nice!
What about best for active dogs? The spot I’m looking at has some direct Sun but also some shade depending upon time of day, my gander recommends st Augustine but I’m thinking Bermuda
Bermuda will be better with active dogs! Best of luck!
Can I put down berbuda seed in late Sept in North Florida?
Depends on your daily temps, and how much sunlight you’ll be getting daily. The spring will be better, since the days will be growing in length and temp. In average it takes 30-45 days for Bermuda seed to germinate
Question, why is St Augustine almost 1 dollar more then Bermuda?
St Augustine can only be grown from sod or plugs. It’s possible that St. Aug is a little more expensive because it’s a longer process at the farm, and you can just grow Bermuda from seed.
I like the idea of having two types of dormant grasses side by side. Backyard looks great! I can see from the video your getting better results with Bermuda over St Augustine. Rule of thumb is not to water more than 1” per week. Watering 15-20 minutes 2-3x a week early in the morning. Your right St Augustine Grass is susceptible to disease but only when the root system is saturated.
Looks like a golf course
Thanks!!
U were able to accomplish that Bermuda lawn with sta green seeds? It looks great!!
You bet!! Thanks for the support! 🤙🏼
Can you show Rowan in one of your videos. From Ava‘s best friend
I will try to have her help me in one soon!
How did the bermuda make out with dormancy? Also what type bermuda ido you have
Bermuda has been doing good, usually come back strong in March/April- depending on our avg temps. I seeded with Sta-Green blend, it’s Sultan and Mohawk varieties, produces a pretty dark green medium/fine grass.
If you plant bermuda and you said it will take over st. Aug, won’t it be a problem for neighbors if they have st.? I’m so tired if st. it has so much problems including bugs, disease and ants. But curious of my neighbors would have problem since they have st.?
They probably already have some Bermuda growing wild amongst their st. Aug. Don’t worry about your neighbors, it’s your lawn- enjoy it! 🤙🏼
Never knew anyone would want Bermuda grass🤒
😅 there’s a huge community of Bermuda lovers out there! Thanks for watching!
What type of Bermudagrass do you recommend in southwest Louisiana? Is that just common Bermudagrass ?
Sultan and Mohawk blend from Sta-Green. They’re basically a common type Bermuda, but are more fine textured.
@donslawns1 Oh ok. Thank you so much for replying back to me. Do you think it would do well in southwest Louisiana? I wasn't sure where you are located.
@@JamesA88 yes, it should do very well in SW Louisiana!
@@donslawns1 Thank you so much
I'm in Broward county, my tiny side yard isn't doing well not a lot of sun there what grass other than st.aug would you suggest? I'm going to try the bermuda in the front and back, THANKS for the video~ I thought that was turf grass looks AMAZING
Thanks for the positive feedback!! Unfortunately there isn’t a lot of grass types that handle shade very well. You may be able to consider a perennial ryegrass, but it doesn’t usually tolerate heat as well. Worth looking into though!
Don I Agree!!! well said!!!! is that st augustine inside the playset on the bottom? And yes taller grasses get more diseases cause less air circulation cause of the height of blades. The two grasses are looking really sharp back there. My Neighbors have st augustine and there constantly watering every time and me every so often now with Bermuda in the front. And what you said about not watering is correct it will bounce right back I went almost 3 months not water the Bermuda in the back and it was still green lol I mean I didn't sprinkle a little water maybe 2 times but that's nothing, anyways another great video👍
Thanks bro! Yes- I left St. Aug under the playscape because I couldn’t move it, and I was going the whole no herbicide route! Weirdly enough, my daughter also asked to keep the tall grass under there. 😂
@@donslawns1 that's what I figured cause its almost like a bed with the layers of grass st augustine makes so perfect for under there
And the shade tolerance of St. Aug helps it survive as well!
How do you put a boundary to the Bermuda. Can it affect crops? How frequent do you mow it?
I just use my weed eater and edge them to keep them separate. During the summer months I mow the Bermuda everyday to every other day. Thanks for watching!
Great video. Is it true St. Augustine is better at choking out/repelling weeds? Don’t know if using proper terminology
Honestly, both turf types prevent weeds pretty well- if they’re dense and healthy. Personally I’ve seen Bermuda do a slightly better job at staying healthy, so it has been able to “prevent” a little better. Thanks for watching!
I have both in my yard and I'm attempting to let St Augustine take over. My Augustine feels like a plush carpet and it does not get weeds like the Bumuda for that reason I don't mind the watet requirements.
@@kimberlyhenton6196 good luck!!
How do I remove the st Augustines? It is all in my Bermuda lawn. I am cutting it low and often
You can try a couple routes- 1) Mechanical Dethatching/power raking- it’ll tear up the st. aug, and the Bermuda will be recover much thicker. 2) Chemicals- stuff like quinclorac is tough on st. aug, but safer on Bermuda. You can also try waiting until the Bermuda goes into dormancy- and spraying areas with glyphosate.
