It's nearly October, and the carpet is hanging in there. Oh, how I love me some Bermuda. My neighbor just got some Tahoma 31 (the latest and greatest Bermuda cultivar), so I'm rather jealous. Tahoma 31 has better color, shade tolerance, wear resistance, drought resistance, etc. I'll just have to keep up my Tifway 419, which is like a 70 year old cultivar.
