First of all fescue is not for any shade. It will get thin and look horible. For fescue to be healthy it needs lots of sun and lots of water and absolutely no dogs, they will burn it with a drop of piss and it will not grow back. It does not wear well either with a lot of use. Bermuda sucks, to hard to maintain. Look how much work goes into a golf green to make that look good. You can look at bermuda grass the wrong way and it will die. I would recommend St. Agustine (Buffalo Grass), tough, does not need constant fertilzer like fescue to stay green. All grass types take work, lots of work to make them look good and to keep healthy. I loved working with my grass when I was a homeowner (renting now), had both fescue and St. Aug,but I will never own a home with grass again.
