Grass

In Chennai, the hot and humid coastal climate makes warm-season grasses the best choice for home lawns and garden landscapes. Homeowners prefer grasses that can tolerate strong sunlight, high temperatures, and occasional heavy rains during monsoon. Popular choices include Bermuda grass for its durability, Mexican grass for its soft carpet-like appearance, Zoysia grass for its dense and lush growth, and St. Augustine grass for better shade tolerance. These grasses stay green for most of the year when properly watered and maintained. Choosing the right grass depends on your garden size, sunlight exposure, maintenance level, and usage such as kids’ play areas or decorative landscaping.
