Valencia Palms Landscape Manager
The Valencia Palms neighborhood in South Florida made a move to switch out their Floratam St. Augustine after Lethal Viral Necrosis took out many of the lawns and common areas in the community. The University of Florida’s newest grass, CitraBlue St. Augustine, checked all of the boxes and fit the bill for what Valencia was looking for. Its disease resistance, its shade tolerance and its remarkable color made it Valencia’s choice replacement.
“We’re now going on four years and nobody regrets a single thing about that decision. We’ve installed pretty close to 2 million square feet so far, which is nearly 50% of the community. All the houses are done… Residents often ask me how often we fertilize and I tell them: not very much.”
