The previous post contained pictures from May 30. These are pictures from the same field, approximately the same spot, just one week later after we've harvested. A couple of these are panorama photos so hopefully they show up okay for you. I've kind of gotten into panorama photos lately. If you haven't done so already you can check out or Facebook page and see other pictures and posts also. ...

St. Augustine about to be harvested…

Lindy took a couple of pics yesterday that I wanted to share. Not much to say about them other than this is how a field looks before we start harvesting and that it will look quite a bit different after a couple of days having the harvesters out there! ...

Color Comparison – Celebration Bermuda versus Empire

May 23, 2013May 23, 2013 by murffturf Comment Closed

We wanted to give an example of the color difference between Celebration Bermuda and Empire and it just so happens that we have both of these grasses next to each other in our office yard and our neighbors yard. We aren't saying one is better than the other and there are different reasons for using one or the other but we just wanted to show the BIG difference in color. The grass in the foreground in the picture below is Empire and Celebration is in the background. Keep in mind that the Celebration in this picture is mowed probably every 3 days with a reel mower. Homeowners typically have rotary mowers and probably won't want to mow that often either. Celebration doesn't have to be mowed with a reel mower and doesn't have to be mowed every 3 days but this particular yard is maintained that way so just wanted you to be aware of that. They are both excellent grasses that we...

Anyone Watching the Upcoming Basketball Tournament?

March 20, 2013March 20, 2013 by murffturf Comment Closed

We don't know how many people that come to our site are basketball fans and I hope if you aren't you don't mind us talking about it for just a brief minute here. Here are a few interesting apps we wanted to point out to help you cover the games. The first is the official NCAA March Madness Live app which will allow you to watch games live. The second app, Simple Bracket, is a new way of entering and keeping up to date with your bracket by the fine folks at Studio Neat, makers of the Glif. And the third is the ESPN Bracket Bound App that also lets you keep up with your bracket and scores. Hope this wasn't too intrusive on your time. Good luck with your brackets this year!...
