Greeting fellow garden fans,

What's the best type of grass seed and method to get some grass on this section of the yard?

I've got a 300 sq ft section of yard that is partially under a pine tree and partly under a cherry tree. At this time of the year, it gets direct sunlight from 7-10am and from 12n-2pm. The ground was covered with pine needles until a month ago when I raked it clean. Good soil, but just water has not produced any new grass.

Thanks.

Snuffy
