Author	Topic:   Getting Texas Common to spread
jongordo8 Friend	posted 21 July 2009 18:29             I have half my yard in St Augustine and half is bermuda and the St. Augustine is slowly taking over the Bermuda, any suggestions on how do I get/promote it to spread quicker? I love the ease of St. Augustine and the fact that it stays green and chokes out weeds, so how do I get the bermuda to say goodbye and St. Augustine to say hello? IP: Logged
