If you want a lawn that will cope with your climate, then you need to
sow Bermuda grass, which is coarser than typical UK turf grasses, but
able to withstand low humdity and high temperatures quite well. It is
widely used in Mediterranean type climates throughout the world. A
quick trawl through tinternet will reveal suppliers and a confusing
gamut of varieties from which you can choose.


Thanks for the suggestion.
I've been given a long list of ideas ...
