Maintaining a dense, green lawn in a coastal area where irrigation introduces salt and sea breeze degrades conventional grasses requires a variety selected for extreme salt tolerance. These Paspalum grass seeds (Paspalum vaginatum) —also called Seashore Paspalum— are supplied by Floralen, hulled and coated, in 22.7 kg (50 lb) bags, the standard variety for golf courses, coastal gardens, and beachfront landscaping projects where other grasses die due to salinity.

Key benefits

Extreme salt tolerance: The only variety that tolerates irrigation with brackish water, recycled water, or water with high salt content without losing density or color, making it standard in coastal areas of the Caribbean.
Golf course aesthetics: Produces a dense, uniform, deep dark green carpet with a fine texture characteristic of professional golf course tees, fairways, and greens.
Moderate waterlogging resistance: Tolerates brief periods of flooding and slow-draining soils better than most tropical grasses, a common condition in coastal gardens with high water tables.
Stolon recovery: Horizontal growth by stolons and rhizomes regenerates coverage after moderate traffic or localized wear, maintaining the overall appearance of the garden without visible patches.
Floralen selected variety: Coated seed with high varietal purity, which produces a homogeneous lawn in color and texture from the first germination.

Typical applications and uses

Residential gardens on the beachfront: Punta Cana, Bávaro, Las Terrenas, Samaná, North Coast.
Golf courses: tees, fairways, greens, and perimeter areas in professional projects.
Social areas of hotels, resorts, and coastal tourism projects with recycled or brackish irrigation.
Public parks and coastal landscaping projects where environmental salinity makes standard grasses unviable.

Quality and durability

An inexpensive Paspalum seed fails in two ways: the varietal purity is low (which mixes Paspalum with other grasses that do die with salt and leave progressive bare spots) and germination is irregular. Floralen works with selected and coated seed for high purity, which separates a professional project grass from a generic mix that degrades in a few months when irrigation with coastal well water begins.
