Upgrade from Tifway to TifTuf
TifTuf is a lawn that will pay for itself in reduced water bills
Yup, you're on a Tifway page but we know you'll like TifTuf a lot more. The names are too similar, so slow down for a minute to consider the "Tuf" part. TifTuf is tougher in droughts, greens up earlier in spring, has some shade tolerance, better cold tolerance, better endurance under high traffic conditions, and faster grow back after wear and tear.

Available as sod, Tifway sod can be installed all year long, even during the winter when it's dormant. As a hybrid Bermudagrass, Tifway is not available to grow from seed.
