We have several huge sycamore trees in our yard. Every summer when it gets hot all of the grass around these trees dies. Each spring we have planted new gras and the result is the same. Does anyone know about this?

Grass doesn't grow well in shade and where it has to compete with thirsty tree roots. Try a ground cover instead.
