Common Bermudagrass seed is used for pasture, hay production, erosion control, lawns, roadsides and many other uses. It is adapted for a wide range of soil types from sandy to clay soils. This bermudagrass is best adapted to the lower 1/3 of the US on well drained sites. It is very drought tolerant but still can stand flooding for short periods. Makes a coarse general purpose lawn and is still planted for lawn use throughout warm season areas. Also the least expensive grass variety you can plant from seed. Planting from seed is the most cost effective way to plant bermudagrass. Hulled seeds are seeds that have part of the protected seed coat mechanically removed so as to speed up germination percentages. This makes it more likely for the seed to all germinate at or near the same time. More hulled seed is planted than any other kind because people generally want fast germination which is best achieved with hulled seed. Coated seed has been coated with a coating material (clay based) and a fungicide to increase successful germination by providing control of seed and soil borne pathogens.
