Having moved to Florida in 1997 from "up north", I was shocked at what pass= es for lawn grass in Florida. The thick, course bladed "St. Augustine" or = "Floratam" or "Palmetto" would be consider crabgrass in Northern or mid-Atl= antic states. Synthetic Grass, Artificial Grass, Fake Grass, whatever you = want to call it, has gotten so good people don't have to settle for crabgra= ss as their lawn. And forget about trying to grow and maintain golf course= "exotic" sport turf grasses unless you plan to spend thousands per month i= n upkeep. Southwest Greens offers about 20 different synthetic grass style= s with different color blends, thatches, pile heights, and levels of face w= eights. You can get the "golf course" look without the maintenance hassle.= Of course, it costs more out of the gate but typically the payback is bet= ween 3 to 5 years considering all the costs of the alternative. Remember t= oo that the alternative comparison should be what it would take to have a b= eautiful, manicured lawn because that is what you get when you install synt= hetic grass in your yard. It's a major aesthetic improvement and always re= ady for a BBQ, backyard party, or lawn game. Checkout
