What type of grass do I have?

Can anyone help me determine what type of grass I have. I am going to put in sod in my dead spots and would like to know what kind I need to get. Here is a link to my pictures.

It looks like at least 50% is dead or dying. Have you considered taking it all out and putting in whatever grass you want? Something compatible with your region and lifesyle.

Really hard to tell, but that looks like hybrid bermuda that wasn't scalped this spring and is being maintained WAY too high!

How long have you lived there?

You may not need to buy anything else, just start following some semblance of a bermuda maintainence schedule.

Can you get some more up close pics?

Very poorly maintained Bermuda grass. Good news is you can restore it but you have to make a lifestyle change. Find and read the Bermuda Bible. Then follow it to the letter.
