ABOUT PALMETTO*
Palmetto is a native St. Augustine grass cultivar selected for better color and finer texture than ordinary St. Augustine grass. Palmetto St. Augustine grass demonstrates superior shade, cold, frost, heat, and drought tolerance. This versatile turf grass is used across the southern United States from the Carolinas to Florida under a wide range of climate and soil conditions making it the ideal choice for residential and commercial use.
Palmetto grass is rapidly becoming accepted as a landscaping standard as it has been used in thousands of lawns since 1994. Please note that like all turf grass, Palmetto St. Augustine grass is a living plant, not a miracle grass. When properly maintained, however, Palmetto St. Augustine grass will deliver years of an aesthetically pleasing and functional lawn.

Palmetto St. Augustine is a hardy, low maintenance turf grass that grows well in a wide variety of conditions, including a variety of soil types. Palmetto will thrive in sand, sandy loam, clay and muck. Palmetto will perform well in full sun, and also with as few as four hours of direct daily sun, on average. While Palmetto is a durable, versatile, and hardy grass, you should carefully analyze your own local growing conditions prior to selecting and installing Palmetto or any other turf grass.
To ensure optimum quality and performance of Palmetto, users must implement proper care and maintenance. This care and maintenance has been formalized below in the Best Management Practices (BMP's) for Palmetto St. Augustine. These BMP's are written as a guide and should be modified as local climate, soil and environmental conditions dictate. It is important to note that no “magic fertilizer” or “super chemical” will solve all problems or make any turf grass perfect.
Through consistent application of the BMP's and on-going evaluation, education and modification of these practices, however, users will greatly enhance the quality and performance of Palmetto St. Augustine. The described maintenance information also applies to many semi-dwarf St. Augustine grasses. It is recommended that users identify the specific variety of St. Augustine being utilized, and that information be gathered pertaining to BMP's for that cultivar.
