CitraBlue® St. Augustine grass was 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 unique blue-green color and disease resistance. CitraBlue has less vertical growth than most St. Augustines and allows for minimal mowing and maintenance. Its shade tolerance is among the best in the industry.
