Bahia grass is a great choice for low-maintenance, sandy areas in the southern United States. While it doesn’t produce the softest turf, it will make an acceptable lawn requiring minimal irrigation and fertilizer. Bahia grass has very few problems with insects or diseases and is ideal for use in erosion control along roadsides and utility areas.

Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) is a fast-growing warm-season annual cover crop known for weed suppression, soil improvement, and pollinator-friendly flowers. It thrives in light, well-drained, low-fertility soils but is frost-sensitive and drought-intolerant. Buckwheat’s dense canopy conserves moisture and prevents erosion, making it ideal for double cropping or use as green manure. Often included in pasture seed mixes to benefit soil, buckwheat is a good source of fiber, lysine, and protein for livestock.

Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) is a warm-season perennial forage grass prized for rugged resilience and summer grazing value. It thrives in hot, dry conditions with minimal water and regrows quickly after heavy grazing. Ideal for cattle, sheep and goat pasture, it delivers lush summer forage, superior erosion control, and adapts well across warm U.S. regions (Southeast, Plains, Southwest).

Native warm-season Panicum virgatum (switchgrass) thrives in USDA Zones 3–9 (Great Plains to Southeast US). An exceptionally hardy, low-maintenance grass, it tolerates drought and poor soils while delivering high forage yields and dense cover. Use switchgrass for pasture forage, erosion control, prairie restoration, or ornamental clumps and fall color.

Tall fescue is a hardy cool-season perennial grass valued for its deep roots and resilience. It yields high-quality forage for pasture and hay across many U.S. regions (Midwest, Southeast, Northeast, Pacific NW) and stays green into fall. Extremely drought-tolerant and easy to establish, tall fescue provides a reliable, persistent grazing grass that withstands poor soils and summer heat.
