Re: kikuyu, aka? (or St. Augustine Grass?)

Moira, Sean, David et al,

Back to the Stenotaphrum secundatum thread!  Do you know if it is tolerant of light frost?

The perennial display area of the Mendocino Coast botanical gardens has grass paths (Golden Gate Mix).  Summer irrigation of 1" /week is needed to maintain this high traffic area, which annihilates my beloved Medit
perennial beds.  Originally pop ups were installed but our creek water
clogs them instantly.  A filter system is too costly, but is moving up on the list of priorities.
The rising cost of electricity is a huge factor for finding solutions.  Personally it irks me to have to use so much water during the summer.

I want to thank everyone in this group for taking the time to share your knowledge it is very appreciated.
