Ascension Parish sits in USDA Zone 9a, humid subtropical with hot humid summers and mild winters, with 62 inches of rain a year and frost dates running first fall frost mid-November, last spring frost mid-March. Soil across the parish runs Mississippi River alluvial silt loam in the bottomlands along the river, with Pleistocene terrace soils on the higher elevations near Prairieville and Sorrento, and mixed clay loam to silt loam through most of the parish. We pick your grass variety around your specific yard and zip code, not a generic chart.
