re: Planting native grass in pines

I think your crown cover is way too much for native grasses to grow. If not now, it will be in a couple of years.
Did you actually remove any overstory trees or just have underbrush mulched?

We removed a good bit of mid-story trees, mostly tallow and sweet gum. The privet was really bad. All that's left really are a few oaks, hollies, and the pines. I've gotten some recs on some pretty shade tolerant grasses from LSU AG, so hoping I could get those to grow.
If I can't, the alternative may be that the understory gets mulched naturally with pine needles, which I'd also be 100% okay with. I think it would look really nice. I just wasn't able to get the property mulched prior to the pines dropping their needles this year.
