re: Planting native grass in pines

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.

Can you run a fire through it ? Think it would help with your goals. Use a blower or rake to clear around any oaks you want to keep. Doubt it would be hot enough to kill the oaks, but it will probably set them up for heart rot due to bark damage.
