Hello,I am in Saint Petersburg, Florida. My backyard consists of a very shaded side area and a very sunny back area. I bought Saint Augustine Civil(at least that’s what I was told)and put it down for the whole area because I researched it was for shade….Well, all the grass in the shade has COMPLETELY died and gone away and the grass in the sun is still somewhat living well. I have two dogs as well but, I can’t find a good grass for my shaded back yard!!!Can someone please help me with a good grass for a shaded and sandy area?? Thank you in advance.

Try ‘Palmetto’ St Augustine.
