what is st.augustine grass?

St. Augustine grass is a warm-season grass that thrives in the heat of Texas summers, offering a soft, dense lawn with a deep green color. It’s known for its thick, broad blades, which give it a soft, carpet-like feel underfoot. St. Augustine sod is available in several varieties, with Palmetto and Floratam being the most popular choices in DFW. Floratam is known for its drought resistance and ability to handle direct sunlight, while Palmetto offers a finer texture and better shade tolerance.

St. Augustine is well-suited for a wide range of soil types, but it flourishes in moist, well-drained soils and is particularly well-adapted to the humid conditions of Texas. This grass type grows quickly and establishes itself faster than many other varieties, making it a great choice for homeowners looking for immediate results.

Watering Guide

Keep soil consistently moist during the first days after treatment, then gradually reduce frequency while maintaining deep watering to support strong root development.

Care Tips

Mow at recommended height and avoid overwatering to prevent disease, ensuring your lawn remains dense, vibrant, and visually appealing throughout the season.
