2026 Cobalt Hybrid St. Augustine Field Day – Florida
Field Day Details
The Cobalt® Hybrid St. Augustine field day was a huge success. Thank you to King Ranch Turfgrass for putting on an outstanding event. This grass is reshaping the narrative around St. Augustine grass.
As Dr. Ambika Chandra, Cobalt’s lead breeder, says, “Cobalt will change how people think about St. Augustine and water use.”
