Cobalt® Hybrid St. Augustine features excellent drought and shade tolerance, disease resistance, and winter hardiness and has a good establishment rate. In warm-season turfgrass varieties, St. Augustine routinely rates among the best with low-light applications. National Turfgrass Evaluation Program (NTEP) 2016 St. Augustine Trial ranked Cobalt superior over Citrablue, Palmetto, Raleigh, and Floratam varieties in turfgrass quality (including density, uniformity, texture, smoothness, growth habit, and color), drought dormancy, and drought recovery, spring green up and spring turfgrass quality. Cobalt ranked second in the group on disease resistance. This variety exhibits exceptional visual appeal with its dark green genetic color and wide leaf blades and stolons.
