What kind of grass grows best in red clay South Carolina?

Bermuda grass and Zoysia grass are two of the best types of grass for growing in red clay in South Carolina. They both have deep root systems that help them to tolerate the drought conditions that are common in the state. Bermuda grass is a warm-season grass that grows quickly and can withstand high temperatures. Zoysia grass is a cool-season grass that grows more slowly but is more resistant to pests and diseases. Both types of grass produce a thick, dense turf that can crowd out weeds and help to prevent soil erosion.
