Type Of Grass For Wet And Shade Yard

Question

I am in desperate need of advice for a grass that will thrive in wet shady soil. Due to neighbors trees my yard gets no sun from June on. New sod 3 years in a row has not worked. Is there any grass that will thrive in this enviornment?

Since the area remains wet it will be best to treat with a fungicide, often, to prevent fungal issues. This article will help:
