What is the size of your Sod?
It depends on the type of sod. Our Medallion Tall Fescue and Supreme Kentucky Bluegrass come as 10 square foot rolls, 24x60 inches. Our Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia comes as 7.5 square foot rolls, 24x45 inches.


What are Plugs?
Plugs are small pieces of grass and soil that are planted 6-12 inches apart to grow your own lawn or nursery, and will typically grow together in 2-3 growing seasons, depending on initial spacing. Plugs are used for grasses that grow through vegetative propagation instead of seeding, like our Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia. Our plugs are different from most other plugs in that they are "deep-cut" plugs, 2 inch diameter by 2 inches deep. Find out more about our plugs at our Zoysia page here.


How much does your Sod weigh?
A typical roll will weigh about 40-55 lbs. These weights vary with the amount of moisture in the ground (wetter sod is heavier).


How much Sod comes standard on a Pallet?
Standard pallets for MedallionTM Tall Fescue and Supreme Kentucky Bluegrass are 540 square feet. Standard pallets of Zoysia are 405 square feet. However, every pallet is cut to order so you can order less if you do not need the full pallet amount.


Is there a minimum order quantity?
For pick up at the farm, there is no minimum order quantity, provided you order at least one roll. We do not sell partial rolls.
For Retail Delivery, the minimum order quantity for Bluegrass or MedallionTM Tall Fescue is 540 square feet, and the minimum for Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia is 300 square feet.
For Landscaper, Garden Center, and other institution or wholesale delivery, please call us at 301-948-2900.

What Sod is good for shady areas?
Grass, like all other plants, needs sunlight to survive. Therefore, no sod is perfect for an area that is shaded all the time. While our MedallionTM Tall Fescue is more shade tolerant than our Bluegrass or Zoysia, half a day of direct sunlight should be sufficient to maintain any of our grasses.


Does your Sod contain multiple varieties of grasses?
Yes. Our Supreme Kentucky Bluegrass is an equal blend of 4-5 different Kentucky Bluegrass varieties. Our MedallionTM Tall Fescue is about 1/8 of our Supreme Kentucky Bluegrass Blend, with the remainder an equal mixture of 3 Turf Type Tall Fescue varieties. The Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia is strictly Meyer (Z-52) Zoysia.
