Does anyone remember? My dad decided once that he could bring plugs from New Orleans and start them in Grannies yard. So everytime for awhile on trips to Ruleville he would bring St Augustine grass to granny's to plant in her yard. He started planting them just to the right of the porch as you were facing her house.
Camellia said: Oh, Good Ed, thanks for this memory...that's the same reason 310 McClain had St. Augustine. I remember plug detail, and I think once when we visited in N.O. we came home with a sack of plugs? Scarlett, is this true? How on earth would we have fit a sack of grass in our car to come home? OH, yeah...Daddy was packing.
St.Augustine at 1511 Deering also came from N.O. by way of 310 McClain. When Charles edged his yard, he gave us the runners which we planted in the front yard. We had a good stand for a while, until bugs moved in. Still have a good bit in the back yard.
St Augustine at 317 Skeeter Robertson Road also came from NO - I didn't know this until this week, when Gary starting raking the dead cinch bug's grass.
