Recommended for Charleston: St. Augustine - Best suited for local climate and soil conditions.
Charleston's coastal soils often run sandy and fast-draining, with salt exposure near the water, so new sod benefits from steady early watering and a starter feeding to establish in the loose ground. The humid subtropical climate keeps winters mild, making spring through early summer the ideal time to lay warm-season sod for fast rooting in the warmth. St. Augustine is the recommended grass for the Lowcountry because it thrives in heat and humidity, carries good salt tolerance for coastal lots, and handles the partial shade thrown by Charleston's signature live oaks. It grows into a dense, broad-bladed lawn that resists weeds and suits the area's mix of sun, shade, and coastal influence.
