Suggestions for low thirst, low maintenance turf-type grass for hot dry lawn area that gets a lot of traffic? I need a low maintenance environmentally friendly grass for my lawn that not only tolerates the hot dry climate in Sunny California but will THRIVE in the hot summer sun and stay green without needing lots of water. Hot summers, cool to cold winters. My neighbors are pretty intolerant of anyone whose grass isn't golf course perfect and manicured to look like a green carpet. This grass gets full sun and foot traffic daily, as well as hot dry air in summer and dry cool air in winter (but no less sunny). It is mowed and edged weekly. The soil is clay-y. My city doesn't like brown either but we are in the midst of a drought and need to conserve water. Synthetic turf is too pricey--I have a huge area to cover. My city doesn't permit hardscapes in the front--only limited to borders which I already have. Also, I have a brown thumb. Any suggestions for grass, grass, grass that will do well under these conditions with twice a week watering? Thanks.

Which type(s) of grass would be best for a shady, highly-trafficked, Georgia backyard? I've got a very shady and tree-filled (i.e., mostly in shade all the time, though some patches of sunlight do get through here and there) backyard which should be/will be having children, dogs, and adults trafficking and playing all over it. The yard is a little hilly, and is mostly one long (though not terribly steep) slope. I live in north Georgia (meaning the ground is generally full of red Georgia clay, though the concentration in my yard doesn't appear to be terribly high). Does anyone have any suggestions as to grass types or places/websites I could go for more information? (This is probably obvious, but I'm also trying to keep costs (both installation and maintenance) and effort (both installation and maintenance) down, especially since I'm planning on/probably going to be doing most of the work myself. These aspects aren't AS important at this point however.) Thanks very much in advance!
