Cynodon dactylon
Cynodon dactylon, commonly known as Bermuda grass, is a perennial grass species native to warm regions. It is widely used for lawns, sports fields, and golf courses due to its durability and ability to withstand heavy foot traffic. This grass thrives in sunny environments and is drought-resistant, making it a popular choice in many landscapes.
Bermuda grass grows quickly and establishes a dense turf, which helps prevent weed growth. It has a fine to medium texture and can be maintained at various heights, depending on its use. Cynodon dactylon is also used in some regions for erosion control and as forage for livestock.
