{"product_id":"pennington-bermudagrass","title":"Pennington Bermudagrass","description":"\u003cp\u003ePennington Bermudagrass is ideal for southern lawns that bask in full sun for 8 or more hours each day. The low-growing grass varieties in this Bermudagrass grass seed offer improved cold tolerance over ordinary Bermudagrass varieties. That's on top of exceptional heat, drought and traffic tolerance that Bermuda is known for. This combination extends the suitability of this warm-season grass into more moderate climates, including the transition zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis grass seed will thrive in lawns that receive 8+ hours of daily sun. Plant it in the spring or early summer and see results within 14 to 21 days. A 1-pound bag covers up to 1,000 square feet for overseeding an existing lawn and 500 square feet for starting a new lawn from scratch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile most grass seed companies buy their seed on the open market, we are the only major grass seed company that works directly with a network of dedicated growers.
