CitraBlue St. Augustine

Your going to remove the st Augustine you have?? The reason I ask is because this variety probably won't produce the same color as your turf now. They're selling it online also.

I haven't seen it yet, but the information put out by UF looks really good. I was thinking ProVista but having second thoughts.
Are you planning on removing what you have or just plugging bare areas??

If I can't beat this bermuda, I'm going to renovate with something else.
Bermuda definitely can be overtaken. The question is how much time and money are you willing to put into it

It's raining today. Was looking out the window and was a little surprised by the CitraBlue patch standing out so much among the Palmetto.

That wild it looks totally different. So it looks like it won't match any other type of st Augustine

And before anyone asks, you don't even want to know how much fungicide I was applying to the lawn. It was probably unconscionable :-(. Using 3 or 4 MOAs on a stringent schedule......its just too much.
This!!! Is definitely the reason I removed my Raleigh st Augustine. Just don't think the soil was right for it

This horrible Zoysia mess will be all dirt within hours!

Damn another turf bites the dust
Yeah.......but I honestly cant have this stuff out fast enough. Just too many issues in keeping it happy in my yard.

That said.....in order to say nice things about it at its memorial service today.........we can finish by showing it in its prime.



What happened to the beautiful yard

but neither lawn has ever had a fungus issue at either super high or super low HOC.
I am insanely jealous :)

Every yard with Zoysia in my neighborhood has fungus to some degree.
Sounds like me when I had st Augustine Raleigh.
