[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 611520, member: 7795"] Well their is several things to consider. Saint Augustine with adequate water and fertilizer will grow 4-5 inches a week if the Texas sun is not beating down on it (ever try to go 7 days without mowing your yard when you have been getting an inch of rain a week)? If you plant Saint Augustine you will have to destroy it to get ryegrass to grow in the fall. First frost and the Saint Augustine is toast till late spring. SRBeef said clover but again in Waller, Texas it (like ryegrass) is toast by June. I really don't thing that their is a forage grass that will do much in shade. Bermuda might work depending on what "large amounts of trees" actually means. Scattered trees that gives partial shade thru the day might be all right. Dense shade all day probably won't work.
