Sod for my new house (Posted on 2/22/13 at 11:21 pm)
I have 2 questions:
Where is the best place in south LA to buy sod?
I've been reading a lot about St. Augustine, centipede, and even empire zoysia. I live in Houma so I'm sure the soil is pretty fertile. I can't make up my mind on the type I should go with, I mainly want something that is a deep green color and I don't mind if I have to mow it often. Any suggestions?

I've been reading that there isn't any St. Augustine seed just sod but someone mentioned they know of a few places that sell the seed. Has anyone heard of seeding St. Augustine? Sod may be a little more than I can afford after we've nearly drained our savings on everything else for the house.

It doesn't seed, just grows from other grass. You can get plugs if money is tight and give it time to spread...
