I am Michael from Houston Grass, presenting Cobalt St Augustine, a new grass variety.

Key Features of Cobalt St Augustine
Houston Grass takes pride in offering grass varieties with quality second to none, I am excited to introduce Cobalt St Augustine, the latest addition to our range of products here at Houston Grass. This new grass breed, developed by Texas A&M after years of dedicated research, is specifically engineered to address the common challenges faced by homeowners and landscapers when it comes to grass maintenance.
Resistance to Disease
Cobalt St Augustine is as shade tolerant as Palmetto St. Augustine, but it offers improved resistance to diseases like gray leaf spot. Like Palmetto it thrives best when exposed to 4-5 hours of direct sunlight daily, making it a great choice for most outdoor environments. Whether you have a sunny backyard or a partially shaded lawn, Cobalt’s adaptable nature ensures that it can flourish and maintain its vibrant appearance with the right amount of sunlight.
Adapted for Houston’s Climate
Last year’s hot temperatures and lack of rain from Mother Nature left many with patches of dead grass where irrigation systems lacked coverage. Cobalt St. Augustine offers better drought tolerance to help ensure that more of your grass will survive those situations in the future.
For those of you who remember the Big Freeze of 2021, Cobalt St. Augustine was developed to provide better cold tolerance too. This should make it more likely that your grass will not be damaged in the freezes of the future.
Cobalt Blends with Other St. Augustine Grasses
Another notable characteristic of Cobalt St Augustine is its exceptional ability to blend seamlessly with other St Augustine grass varieties. If you are looking to patch up shadier areas in your existing lawn, Cobalt’s versatility allows for easy integration, ensuring a uniform and cohesive look for your outdoor space.
