The Perfect Low Maintenance Grass: Centipede Serving Augusta, GA
CENTIPEDE Sod is a low-maintenance warm-season grass that may be used in place of Bermuda or Zoysia. Centipede tolerates shade better than Bermuda but not as well as Zoysia. Centipede's aesthetics are often regarded as inferior to those of Bermuda and Zoysia. Centipede has a burned red hue while dormant, which is less appealing than Zoysia or Bermuda. The advantages include its capacity to respond to a wide range of soil types and its low reliance on fertilizer and pesticides. Centipede lawns are ideal for property owners who seek low upkeep and aren't concerned about competing neighbors.
