Mondo Grasses
Mondo makes an excellent ornamental accent planting around trees or sidewalks. It can take full sun but thrives best in filtered shade.
We offer limited supplies of both the REGULAR(6-10" long leaf blade) or DWARF (2-4" Size leaf blade)
Current pricing for a 10"x20" tray of either choice is $26.00.
How do I measure the area I want to cover with a lawn?
For SOD, find the length, times it by the width to get the square footage to be covered.
For STOLONS, divide the total square footage by 120 to get the number of bushels you need. To establish a lawn faster, divide by 100 (100 square feet per bushel).
What grass do I need for shady conditions?
St. Augustine works best for the shadiest areas, followed by El Toro and 'Emeral' Zoysia in filtered shade.
What grass is salt tolerant?
Seashore paspalum is best. St. Augustine is and adequate alternative.
How much does it cost?
We will be able to work with your budget in a variety of ways for our reasonably priced SOD or STOLONS. Please contact us for pricing quotes.

We deliver islandwide.
How much and what type of soil will I need?
A loosened, well drained soil, 4''-6'' in depth, combine with a weed free compost or other organic material.
What fertilizer should I use for planting & follow-up?
Whether sod or stolons, rake in 10-30-10 as a pre-plant. 2-3 months later, apply 15-15-15 or 16-16-16. Once the lawn is established a slow release 21-7-14 is recommended.
