CitraBlue™ St. Augustine grass is a shade-tolerant sod developed by the University of Florida’s turfgrass breeding program under a sponsored Research Service Agreement with the Turfgrass Producers of Florida, Inc. (TPF). CitraBlue St. Augustine is known for its deep blue-green color and disease resistance. CitraBlue St. Augustine has less vertical growth than most St. Augustines and allows for minimal mowing and maintenance. CitraBlue’s shade tolerance is ranked at the top alongside Palmetto® St. Augustine.
St. Augustine CitraBlue is sold in increments of 400 square feet per pallet.
Before buying sod, including pieces, pallets or plugs, please read our Sod Disclaimer.
