Default Buffalo Grass

I'd like to add that buffalo grass is the only native short prairie
which ca be used as turf and it prefers poor soil and does not like
being overwatered. It's not a very easy grass to germinate, but if
you don't have a lot of weeds competing with it, it's beautiful.

There's a short paragraph at the below weblink that confirms the
shopkeeper's instructions for planting Buffalo grass seed.

Bermuda (Sahara variety) would also suit your area. Planting seed has
similar requirements.

Just throwing the seed out to wherever may eventually grow in a few spots
and string out to cover. It takes alot longer this way.
