Common Bermuda vs. Hybrid Bermuda: Why Hybrid Is the Superior Choice for Your Lawn

When choosing the right sod for your property, one of the most common decisions homeowners face is whether to go with common Bermuda or invest in hybrid Bermuda. At Pickens Point Turf, we specialize exclusively in hybrid Bermuda — and for good reason. Let’s take a closer look at the differences and why hybrid Bermuda is the better choice for a beautiful, resilient lawn.

Common Bermuda Vs. Hybrid Bermuda

🌱 What Is Common Bermuda?

Common Bermuda grass is a naturally occurring variety known for its durability and adaptability. It’s often used in public spaces and older lawns because it’s affordable and grows easily in warm climates like ours here in Tennessee. However, common Bermuda tends to have inconsistent color, and is less dense, which can lead to bare spots and increased weed growth.

🌱 What Makes Hybrid Bermuda Different — and Better?

Hybrid Bermuda grasses are specially cultivated varieties that have been genetically enhanced to outperform common Bermuda in several key areas. Unlike common Bermuda, hybrids are typically sterile and grown from sod or sprigs, ensuring a consistent and reliable lawn.

Here’s why hybrid Bermuda is the clear winner:

✔ Finer Texture — Hybrid varieties offer a softer, finer blade, creating a more lush and comfortable lawn.✔ Vibrant, Uniform Color — Say goodbye to the patchy, uneven tones of common Bermuda. Hybrid varieties provide a deep, consistent green.✔ Superior Density — A denser turf helps choke out weeds and withstands heavy foot traffic without thinning.✔ Improved Disease and Pest Resistance — Hybrid Bermuda is bred to be more resilient against pests and lawn diseases.✔ Enhanced Growth and Recovery — Hybrid varieties recover faster from wear, drought, and damage, keeping your lawn looking pristine year-round.
