Palmetto is a native St. Augustine cultivar selected for better color and finer texture. Palmetto St. Augustine demonstrates superior shade, cold, frost, heat, and drought tolerance. This versatile turfgrass is used across the southern United States from the Carolinas to California under a wide range of climate and soil conditions making it the ideal choice for residential and commercial use.

Palmetto is rapidly becoming accepted as a landscaping standard as it has been used in thousands of lawns since 1994. Please note that like all turfgrass, Palmetto St. Augustine is a living plant, not a miracle grass. When properly maintained, however, Palmetto St. Augustine will deliver years of an aesthetically pleasing and functional lawn.

Think about the color - emerald green. This great color is at the same time classically beautiful and timeless. Emerald green reminds you of a picnic at the park, not a day in the snow. For some well-traveled folks, emerald green in landscaping is reminiscent of the graceful, manicured, bright green lawns of Florida. With modern advances in sod technology, these verdant earthy coverings are available in many other parts of the country. At Sod Solutions, we want you to feel you’ve come home to a touch of Florida green style for yourself. Let emerald green be the primary color of your next landscaping design in a place like temperate South Carolina.

Let’s face it! In lawn tops, there are many choices. Some lawn products are intended to be planted directly using grass seed or grass plugs, and other products are intended to be purchased in the form of sod, planted directly on top of graded soil, and watered frequently until it thrives on your property.
Here at Sod Solutions, we serve customers up the right slice of green grass with Palmetto St Augustine.

Our customers come back for more of this great product because they recognize a quality lawn covering when they experience it for themselves.

From the Sod professional’s perspective, you need a ground covering that will live up to the unpredictable local weather conditions. Among our trusted product lines, Palmetto St Augustine Grass is a worthy choice, especially for consumers who count on dependability. This grass variety was originally created in Florida, and by the 21st century it has become a preference of landscaping consumers in warmer climates along the coastline and in island environments. The Palmetto St Augustine grass is the perfect complement for properties you would find in a place like South Carolina or North Carolina, with its warm weather, mild winters and a host of barrier islands, including the Outer Banks.

Palmetto St Augustine Sod Characteristics

When you plant Palmetto St Augustine sod, you can count on this product to be a darker version of emerald green. Palmetto St Augustine Sod characteristics are awesome. You not only get the dark green color, you also get a medium coarse texture and a lawn covering that is fairly resistant to wear and tear.

If you look carefully at our Palmetto Saint Augustine Sod Photos, discover Palmetto St Augustine Grass Maintenance and Palmetto Sod care are achievable, even for individual homeowners. The Palmetto product is easy to mow and maintain at a desirable height of 2 to 3 inches, but University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences recommends mowing the various types of St. Augustine grasses at 3.5 to 4 inches. The higher the grass in this range, the less stress is placed on the lawn itself. Another great thing about Palmetto St. Augustine grass is that it does well in harsh weather conditions like sea salt in the air (near the ocean) and drought (a significant lack of rainfall).
