Simplified Zone Hardiness Map

Centipede: A warm season, thick sod forming, uniform growing, and medium to light green colored grass. It is a slow growing, creeping grass with short stems growing upward. This makes it resemble a centipede insect and is why it got its name. Centipede is probably the lowest maintenance of the warm season grasses.

Tifway Bermuda: Bermuda grass is one of the most sun loving of the warm season lawn and pasture grasses. Tifway is darker green and slightly coarser than other Bermuda varieties, produces an extremely dense turf and, once established, maintains a dense and attractive turf with somewhat less fertilizer than any other Bermuda. It is a slow rooter, but spreads fairly rapidly.

Meyer Zoysia: Zoysia is a warm season grass that can be grown further north than many of the other warm season grasses. It makes one of the most beautiful, carpeted lawns when fully established. Meyer is a fast-spreading Zoysia, a natural hybrid selected and released by Dr. Ian Forbes and associates at the Department of Agriculture's Beltsville, Md., Experiment Station. Meyer was the first really superior Zoysia grass. Medium in texture, it has good color, good disease resistance, and excellent cold tolerance. Grows best in full sun.

Empire™ Zoysia: EMPIRE was discovered in Brazil, and unlike other Zoysia varieties, has proven its ability to thrive in hot, humid conditions. EMPIRE has performed well in sandy and clay soil types with aggressive growth from its runners and rhizomes, but can be mowed with a standard rotary mower due to its broader leaf and open growth habit. It requires less maintenance and mowing than other grasses such as Fescue or Bermuda.

Palmetto™ St. Augustine: A native seashore plant, St. Augustine has been popular along the lower Atlantic and the Gulf Coasts for several decades. It has broad blades and large, coarse stems, but produces a fairly compact sod subject to slight weed invasion. St. Augustine is the most shade tolerant of all permanent hot climate grasses and performs well in wet soils and under salt spray. Basically a tropical plant, most St. Augustine varieties are ill-adapted as far north as Atlanta. However, 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 an ideal choice for residential and commercial use.

Raleigh St. Augustine: Raleigh St. Augustine has a medium leaf and stolon size. It is the most shade tolerant warm season grass, although it still requires 3 to 4 hours of direct sunlight along with filtered sun. It establishes quickly to form a dense, deep carpet which recovers rapidly from heavy use and injuries.
