A chinch bug resistant St. Augustine
with reduced mowing
requirements


Captiva St. Augustine is the first St. Augustine grass since Floratam to resist all varieties of chinch bugs found in the state of Florida.  Chinch bugs are public enemy number one for St. Augustine grass, capable of decimating lawns in a short period of time.  Captiva offers the first resistance since the mid-1990's.      

With a deep, dark green color, Captiva has exceptional beauty, but its ace in the hole is its slow rate of vertical growth which means less mowing for the end-user.  In fact, Captiva was shorter after 21 days of growth than Floratam was after 7 days.

You should take a closer look at Captiva if you are evaluating turfgrass selections for a home lawn. Aesthetically pleasing; slow vertical growth; quick to recover from damage; and chinch bug resistant: Captiva will deliver years of viable performance in the landscape.
