Pensacola Bahia Grass Seed - Coated (Grass Seed)
Pensacola Bahia Grass is a warm-season, perennial grass that is commonly grown in the Southeastern United States, particularly in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi. It is a low-maintenance grass that is highly tolerant of heat, drought, and saline soils.
The grass has a deep root system that makes it highly resistant to drought and allows it to grow in sandy soils. It can also grow in clay soils, but the soil needs to be well-drained. The grass can grow up to 3 feet tall and has a coarse texture with light green color.
Pensacola Bahia Grass is often used for grazing, hay production, erosion control, and as a turfgrass. It is commonly found in pastures, roadsides, and parks. It is relatively low in protein, so it is not the best choice for livestock with high protein requirements, but it is highly palatable and digestible.
Overall, Pensacola Bahia Grass is an excellent choice for areas with hot and dry climates, and it requires minimal maintenance once established.
