Low to No Light Lawn?
 

I have a HUGE Oak tree in my backyard which basically blocks all direct
sunlight. I was wanting to sod sometime soon, is this going to be possible?
I live in Santa Barbara, CA where the weather is pretty much perfect year
round.
Thanks!

I would not use sod which is suited for full sun to partial shade and
is not going to survive. Instead I would seed using a high quality
shade tolerant mix.

This sounds like just what I need.. Where would one aquire such seed? Is
there a good on-line resource?? Many thanks..

Any garden supply store, even Walmart, HD, or Lowes.

no way to trim some of the lower branches to increase sunlight to the
ground?
