Bitter Blue St. Augustine

Bitter Blue St. Augustine
is a variety selected in the 1930s with improved cold tolerance and good shade tolerance.

Bitterblue has a finer, denser texture and darker blue-green color than common St. Augustinegrass. It has improved cold tolerance and good shade tolerance but is not resistant to chinch bugs or gray leaf spot disease. Its tolerance to atrazine is also lower than other varieties, making weed control more difficult. Bitterblue can produce a good lawn under proper management practices and pest control.
