The 6 Best St Augustine Sod Types For Jacksonville

Floraville

Floraville is a low-maintenance type of grass that grows quickly and easily in almost any condition. This drought-tolerant perennial has great color, making it perfect for people who like to have a vibrant lawn that doesn't require much maintenance.


The color can be controlled by adjusting watering or fertilizing, or you can leave it on its own and see what happens. Floraville tends to grow best in areas with mild temperatures and abundant sunlight. Perfect for Jacksonville. It will tolerate both full sun and shade but performs better in full sun when it comes to maintenance requirements.

Pamletto

Palmetto grass is one of the most popular grasses that homeowners choose for lawns because it can thrive in a wide range of temperatures and conditions. This makes it ideal for areas with high heat, heavy soil moisture, and moderate air humidity in our Florida area.


Palmetto grass also has a thick blade, which means fewer weeds will sprout when compared to other types of grasses. This type of lawn also requires less mowing and water due to its thick and resilient nature. If you're looking for an alternative to a boring green lawn, contact us to plant some Palmetto as soon as possible!

Classic Grass

Everyone loves a good, classic-looking lawn. It's lush, green, and tidy-the very picture of an ideal yard. Classic grasses include perennial ryegrass and perennial rye; warm-season fescues such as tall fescue and fine fescue; Kentucky bluegrass; and Bentgrass (good for golf courses).


These grasses do well in all areas of Jacksonville, and you'll surely have enough sunlight for them. Give us a call to talk about which one will work best for your yard.

Floratam

Floratam is an improved version of St. Augustine grass, and it's one of our favorites. It's slightly finer in texture than other varieties, it's dark green year-round, and it grows well in sandy soil with relatively low amounts of fertilizer.


Floratam is especially useful for areas that are exposed to lots of foot traffic because it can handle quite a bit of wear. If you have heavy traffic or play sports on your lawn, consider adding some Floratam grass.

Mercedes

Mercedes grass is known for its dark green color and resistance to chipping. It grows best in sandy soil and takes longer to establish than other varieties.


Its growth rate is moderate-to-slow, growing up to three inches a year, but it can live more than ten years with good care. This variety needs little water or fertilizer once established and grows vigorously when watered regularly.

Watch out for lawn pests like billbugs, which have shown a preference for Mercedes over other grasses. It thrives in full sun, making it an excellent choice for Jacksonville lawns. Mercedes makes an attractive lawn on its own but also blends well with slower-growing varieties like Yorkshire Bluegrass or Perennial Ryegrass.

Seville

The Seville grass is an excellent choice for those who live in areas with warm climates like Jacksonville. With a light green color and medium-fine texture, it is extremely easy to maintain and blends in well with many different types of natural scenery.


It does not require much water and needs little maintenance, which makes it great for families that are constantly on the go. Seville grass may be more expensive to install, but it grows fast and can help you save money on fertilizer over time.


It's also known for its ability to protect against pests like termites, so if you're looking for something that can reduce your maintenance costs while still enhancing your home's curb appeal, then look no further than Seville grass!
