Perennial Rye is darker green and a better quality grass.
Annual Rye is lime green and stays heavy and wet unless you start cutting it low and frequently after 3-4 weeks.
For the spring, I recommend sprigging Bermuda. It seems to be more effective than seeding.

This is pretty true, but annual is a good bit easier to grow in my experience. I have perennial that actually stays green year round in my zone mixed with RTF fescue (East TN) but cover the Bermuda part of my property in annual every Fall. Perennial is a thicker, sturdier blade and darker. Annual is thinner and whispier and a lighter green. The annual seed will literally grow laying on top of concrete though Perennial needs a bit more TLC.
