Improving Your Curb Appeal Since 2017

Every client gets a tailored sod and landscape experience from start to finish with individual property inspection such as sun, shade and levels of ground.

We provide the following types of sod

1. CitraBlue St. Augustine

CitraBlue sod is a blue-green, drought-tolerant, and disease-resistant variety of St. Augustine grass, developed by the University of Florida. It is known for its shade tolerance, making it suitable for sports fields, parks, and commercial landscapes, and requires less mowing than some other St. Augustine types.

Characteristics
Color: Distinctive blue-green color.
Shade Tolerance: Excellent shade tolerance for a warm-season grass.
Resistance: High resistance to turfgrass diseases.
Tolerance: Drought tough, requiring little water except in very hot weather.
Weed Competition: More competitive against weeds than some other St. Augustine varieties.
Mowing: Requires less frequent mowing than Floritam St. Augustine, typically mowed to a height of 2.5 to 3.5 inches.

ProVista is a specific variety of St. Augustine grass known for its glyphosate tolerance, which allows for effective weed control of invasive grasses like Bermuda and torpedo grass without killing the lawn. It features a dense, dark green color, a wide blade, and requires less mowing than traditional St. Augustine, while also performing well in moderate shade and full sun.

Key features of ProVista St. Augustine Glyphosate tolerance: Its most significant advantage is the ability to withstand non-selective herbicides like glyphosate, which can then be used to eliminate other invasive weeds that are hard to remove otherwise.

Less mowing: ProVista has a slower vertical growth rate compared to traditional varieties, which reduces the need for mowing by up to 50%.
Dense and uniform growth: It creates a lush, uniform, and dense lawn, which can outcompete some weeds and provides excellent wear tolerance.
Sun and shade tolerance: It performs well in both full sun and moderate shade, making it more versatile than some other St. Augustine varieties.
Drought tolerance: It is a drought-tolerant grass that can go dormant (turn brown) and recover when watering is resumed.

2. BIMINI® Bermuda

BIMINI® Bermuda sod is a fine-textured, dark green, and highly durable turfgrass known for its exceptional tolerance to heavy traffic, drought, heat, and cold. It is used in a variety of applications, including home lawns, golf courses, and sports fields.

Characteristics
Appearance: BIMINI® produces a dense, dark green, and fine-textured turf with upright leaf growth.
Durability & Traffic Tolerance: It has a rapidly spreading growth habit, excellent wear tolerance, and quick recovery from injury, making it one of the most durable grasses available. Studies by Oklahoma State University ranked it number one in traffic tolerance among other Bermuda grasses.

Environmental Tolerance
Drought & Heat: It is highly drought-tolerant due to its deep root system, thriving in hot climates like Florida.
Cold & Frost: Unlike many other warm-season grasses, BIMINI® has good cold and frost tolerance and is one of the last Bermuda varieties to go dormant in the fall.
Salt & Shade: It also has good salt tolerance and better-than-average shade tolerance compared to other Bermudagrass varieties.
Maintenance: It is a relatively low-maintenance grass that performs best in full sun with a recommended mowing height between 0.5 and 2 inches. It requires about 1-1.5 inches of water per week during the growing season.

Common Uses
BIMINI® Bermuda is a versatile turfgrass that is ideal for: High-end residential lawns

3. EMPIRE Zoysia - Nimmer Turf Farm

Empire Zoysia is a popular medium-bladed, dark green, warm-season turfgrass known for its durability, low maintenance, and excellent drought tolerance. It is a versatile grass (Zoysia japonica cultivar) used widely for residential lawns, commercial landscapes, parks, and golf courses, particularly across the southern U.S. and in tropical and transition zones.

Key Characteristics
Appearance: Features a lush, dark blue-green color and a medium-coarse, soft-to-the-touch texture.
Growth: Spreads by both above-ground stolons and underground rhizomes, creating a dense, mat-forming turf that naturally helps suppress weeds. It has a slower vertical growth rate, which contributes to its low-maintenance appeal.
Tolerance
Drought: Highly drought-tolerant due to its deep root system, it can go dormant (turn brown) during extended dry periods to survive, greening up again with the return of water.
Wear: Offers excellent wear tolerance and recovers well from damage caused by foot traffic, kids, and pets.
Shade: Exhibits good to moderate shade tolerance, performing well with 4–6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Cold: Despite thriving in heat, it also shows very good cold hardiness for a warm-season grass.
Insects/Disease: It is chinch bug resistant and has improved tolerance to diseases like brown patch.
Soil Conditions: Adaptable and performs well in a wide variety of soil types, including sandy and clay soils.

Maintenance
Empire Zoysia is considered a low-maintenance grass, earning it the nickname "E.Z. Grass".
Mowing: Mow to a height of 1–2 inches, using a standard rotary mower. Mow every 7-10 days during the active growing season, less frequently in cooler weather.
Watering: Requires approximately 1 inch of water per week from rain or irrigation during the active growing season to maintain optimal appearance. Deep, infrequent watering is best to encourage deep root growth.
Fertilizing: Has low fertilizer requirements. A soil test is recommended for best results, with a starter fertilizer used upon installation and seasonal fertilization afterward.
