    Depends on the species of grass

    Hard Fescue & Sheep fescue have it beat.

    Tall fescue is about equal.

    Blue grass, fine fescues, and perennial ryegrass require more water.

      Buffalo and Blue Gramma grasses are definitely more drought resistant than clover. They don’t grow very tall either, so you can stop mowing toward the end of the season, let them go to seed, and that will naturally fill in any gaps that might have formed due to drought, damage, etc.
