| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles several types of grass, including St. Augustinegrass, Zoysiagrasses, Centipedegrass, Bahiagrass, Bermudagrass, and Seashore paspalum. States that "St. Augustinegrass...can tolerate wide pH ranges, from the acidic soils often found inland to the high pH of coastal areas, and it's pretty shade tolerant." Reports that Zoysiagrasses are "slow-growing, making establishment difficult, and many of them are susceptible to nematodes, which makes keeping them healthy difficult." |
