[Arid_gardener] overseeding bermudagrass lawn

[Linda Drew]

Some homeowners want a green yard year round.
As Bermuda lawns go dormant in winter, they may
want to add color to their lawns by planting or overseeding
a cool season grass, usually annual or perennial rye, over a
dormant Bermuda lawn. This seeding over Bermuda lawns
will provide a green grass over the winter.

Oct. 10 - Nov. 10 is ideal overseeding time for Phoenix.
