St Augustine Grass

First identified in North Carolina, Raleigh St. Augustine is a southern region grass noted for its cold hardiness and resistance to the St. Augustine Decline Virus. For decades, Raleigh has been the most widely distributed turfgrass in Texas, popular for its dense growth coverage and ability to choke out weeds when consistently watered and healthy. Raleigh does exhibit an ability for growth under tree canopies but must receive adequate sunlight to thrive.
