A seedless, sterile hybrid grass, propagated by hand and sold in 70-count plug trays. It requires a fraction of the water of traditional turfs and is much more durable than native buffalo grass. It's a very fine strain related to Bermuda grass and is a gorgeous bright green color. One of the main desirable characteristics is that it is highly resistant to dog urine and foot traffic. The Grass loves the heat, which is a big advantage over conventional lawns. This means you can plant well into summer. See the how to guide for planting and care instructions.
Dog Tuff is a warm season grass, which means it will not start growing until the nighttime temperatures reach about 50 F (what we call peak season.) Peak season is recommended for planting, if you plant before then you will have to be vigilant making sure the plugs stay wet, as they will not begin to root until then. Planting before early season is experimental as it may shock the fragile plugs with cold temperature changes.
