Here in Ohio, we have all the seasons and it appears to me that the UK
might or might not have snow. Here the winters seem warmer with less
snow. I rather like that though. g

Enjoy watching Ground Force to see the different plants and gardens
ideas.

Thanks to all who have replied.

I think the broad leaved grass that's popular in warmer parts of the States
is called 'Bermuda grass'? I don't recall seeing that grown over here.
We were recently in Hawai'i which has all but two of the weather zones,
apparently, so we're not the only ones that can lay claim to variable
weather! In fact there are as many zones in Hawai'i as exist along the
entire coast stretching from Alaska to Costa Rica. Here in the SW of
England, the climate is mild and damp, frosts of any seriousness are rare
and if we do get snow, it very rarely lasts for long or arrives very often.

Bermuda is found in the warmer climates (i.e. Southern states) We in
the midwest have "Kentucky Blue Grass" and "Rye Grass" for the most
part.

Sounds like your area is a bit warmer in the winter than ours. We can
get snow and it can stay a while. g

The reason I asked the question is that the sod that they use on "Ground
Force" looks like a low growing grass and the mowers don't look that
anything I have seen in the states.

Have you ever been to Washington State on the coast or Vancouver in BC. Mild but wet, is the best way to describe the weather in the UK, with the east and south marginally dryer than the west and north.
