Growing Grass from Seed
It is a bit harder than you think.
I didn't really realize that much of a trees reproductive strategy involves killing all other plants under its canopy by blanketing the ground during much of the year with seeds or leaves. Both of these kill grass.
Birds like to eat small seeds. They eat grass seeds.
During dry seasons, you will need to water it at least 2X a day, otherwise it will die.
Once it is about 1 year old, it gets much easier.

Trees also love to alter the pH under their canopy, so that only nicely symbiotic things (like moss) can live there, wiping out most grasses. Oaks are the most aggressive of the pH alterers that I have encountered, but many nut trees use similar biologic warfare.
