Description
Centipede grass is a warm-season grass with coarse blades and low maintenance requirements. It forms a dense, weed-resistant turf that is well-suited for lawns in southern regions with acidic soils.
Planting Instructions:
Plant centipede grass seeds or sod in late spring or early summer when soil temperatures consistently reach 70°F (21°C) or higher. Prepare the soil by tilling to a depth of 4-6 inches. Sow seeds evenly or lay sod with good soil contact. Keep the soil moist until seeds germinate or sod roots, typically within 14-21 days.
