Turf Grass Guide: Transition Zone

An 11-page guide for the hardest lawn-care zone in the country — where summers are too hot for cool-season grass and winters are too cold for warm-season grass to fully relax. Built around the choice homeowners here actually face: tall fescue, bermudagrass, or zoysiagrass.
