What is a good, durable grass that can endure birds, rabbits, pets, and light walking? #271649

Asked August 20, 2015, 2:50 PM EDT

I removed the invasive weeds from my backyard. Very backbreaking work. So it rained in the middle of the night, and what a blessing. Now I am planting a flora garden with forsythia, roses (both vines and shrubs), daylilies, and hyacinth. The walkway will be a carpet of grass within the garden, approx. 50' long and 4' wide. What is a good, durable grass seed that can endure birds, rabbits, pets, and light use of walking?

Hello, we usually recommend a fine fescue turf. This fact sheet is helpful.
