supina bluegrass

Supina Bluegrass should be watered weekly, and approximately 1/4 - 1/2 inch of water should be applied. Watering should occur in the morning hours to allow foliage to dry before nightfall and to avoid fungal diseases. Supina Bluegrass should not be allowed to dry out, and it is important to avoid over-watering as this may cause shallow root growth. During extreme temperatures the watering frequency may need to be increased to maintain adequate soil moisture.

Supina bluegrass (Poa supina) prefers partial to full sun exposure. A minimum of 4–5 hours of direct sunlight daily is optimal for this plant species. For growth and flowering, supina bluegrass performs best in morning sun and afternoon shade in areas with hot summers. Less sunlight is needed in cooler climates. Supina bluegrass can tolerate some shade, but will be less vigorous and may not bloom if grown in shady conditions.

Supina bluegrass (Poa supina) should be pruned only if needed to maintain a desired density or shape. For best results, prune in late fall or early spring before growth begins. Pruning should be done by removing only the dead or brown blades of grass. Remove no more than 1/3 to 1/2 of the grass at a time in order to avoid stress to the grass. Pruning can also be done to remove thatch or other unwanted growth.
