I'm sure you have all been wondering, like I have, what species of grass are considered acceptable for grass tennis courts. It appears the type of grass is not mandated, according to Tennis Australia's National Court Surface Policy's description of a grass court is natural grass grown from seed.
Here are some grasses that I propose we make grass courts out of: 1. Blue Fescue Grass – Festuca glauca

2. Windmill Grass – Chloris truncata
Tumblr media
3. Snow Grass – Poa sieberiana
Tumblr media
4. Zebra grass (Miscanthus sinensis 'Zebrinus')
Tumblr media
5. Purple fountain grass (Pennisetum setaceum 'Rubrum')
Tumblr media
6. Pink muhly grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris)
