NATAL GRASS 



Natal grass has been recently introduced as a meadow 

 grass in the sandy lands of Florida where it has proved 

 very successful. It is the only grass that has given 

 satisfaction in the pine barrens of central Florida, usually 

 known as high pine land, and in the drier parts of the 

 Hawaiian Islands. Another name for this grass is 

 Natal redtop.
