Annual Rey Grass should do the trick.

I tore up the front yard (48 x 23') completely. Took up all the vegatation
and put down 2 inches of topdress soil. I need to "temporarily" plant
something in it while I work on the hardscape and before I get in all the
scrubs and periennials. It will eventually be a garden area with no grass,
only divided planting areas for scrubs, bushes, periennials, bulbs, mulch,
ground cover and stepping stones. Will eventually have a bench and a raised
garden box, too.

Bottom line, I don't want to plant a grass that will put me back to the
original extremely hard work of removing grass to plant the final item. But
need something to cover over the next year or two to keep it from becoming a
muddy, weedy mess. Thanks
