Tampa Sod
St. Augustine - Floratam
Floratam is one of the most popular kinds of St Augustine grass that is used for many warm-seasons lawns in Tampa, Florida and beyond.
It grows extremely quickly during summer but less during the colder seasons. It is salt-resistant and also drought-resistant making it suitable for harsh climates. The good thing is that it doesn’t require a lot of maintenance while still looking great.
Floratam leave blades are wider and longer than its counterparts. Plenty of sunshine is required for optimal growth which is rarely a problem in the area.
Freeze damage is possible if the temperature stays below freezing for some time. Establishment by sod is recommended to save you time. Your new turf will be ready in a few short days.
It is supposed to be chinch bug resistant but in the last few years, this advantage has lessened. You can still use an insecticide if the problem gets out of control.
This turf selection was released at the beginning of the 1970’s by Agricultural Experiment Stations in Texas and Florida. This coarse-textured grass variety has a purplish-red color that is appreciated by many homeowners.
