St. Augustine originated from the gulf coastal
areas, Caribbean Islands and parts of Africa online casino za
And has spread nearly every where along
especially coastal areas. In the US being a native of the Gulf States it was originally
used in pasturage and lawns along the coast. As man moved inward through the states the
grass was able to spread as more and more land was cleared for livestock. The areas at
that time held more humidity and the land was wetter with the swamps, creeks, rivers,
lakes and ponds that dotted the landscape. The damper richer soils were able to grow ST.
AUG. more easily. Now due to irrigation and land treatments it is in much more demand as a
lawn coverage than pasture grass. india online casino
St. Augustine grass has been grown only from
vegetative propagation (sod, plugs) means until recently. Several companies are currently working
on various seeded varieties, though to date the seed production is not consistent. Propagation is usually accomplished through sod or plugs. This grass is
rarely sprigged for home lawn establishment, but this method is used on nursery farms to
grow sod and can be used for home lawns. betting companies
St. Augustine grows quite well with a starter fertilizer added
into the soil at the time of planting and fertilization monthly until fully established.
Plenty of water on well draining soils with seasonal rains or watering systems for full
establishment. Once it is fully developed in areas of consistent rainfall it grows rather
well on its own, but further inland and in drought conditions it will have to be watered
and fertilized to maintain a lush stand. new betting sites in kenya
