once and was told to buy Palmetto Grass, a type of St. Augustine Grass for the Shady North Side of the Home with lots of Oak Trees. They sold it starting in November. I was told this by a large Sod Grower who supplied the Home Depot's in Jax. We ended up selling the home and never sodded that area. I'd find a local Sod Farmer who will sell to You Wholesale and can deliver it to you. If you try right now You may still be able to find some otherwise, You may have t wait until November.
