there are many seeds which are suitable according to the types of the soil. normally, grasses like tifway grass, bermuda grass, are good for sand soil.crab grass is very good for sand soil. bahia grass which is available in north california is the grass to be grown in the sand soil. add a comment.+1 vote!all Fescue, creeping Red Fescue, and hard Fescue can be planted in sandy soil. Grass does not really grow very good in just sand. If you place some compost on top to about 2' and then place your grass seeds you will have better luck and just about use whatever grass grows well in your area. Happy Spring!
