Lawn Guide

What Grass Types Grow Best in New Orleans Lawns?

St. Augustine is the local default for New Orleans lawns because it is one of the best warm-season grasses for shady yards. Zoysia adds density and wear tolerance, Bermuda suits full-sun play areas, and Centipede is the low-maintenance choice. Sun, foot traffic, and how much upkeep you want decide the right fit.

St. Augustine

One of the best warm-season grasses for shade, which suits yards under live oaks. Watch for chinch bugs in hot, dry stretches.

Mowing height2.5 to 3 in

Dense, deep green lawn grass
Dense and hard-wearing

Zoysia

A dense, fine-to-medium turf that handles foot traffic and moderate shade. It establishes slowly and looks its best in years two and three.

Mowing height1 to 2 in

Fine, low lawn grass in bright sun
Full sun, heavy use

Bermuda

Grows fast, recovers from wear quickly, and needs full sun, so it suits open play areas. It spreads into neighboring turf.

Mowing height0.75 to 2 in

Yellow-green lawn grass with medium blades
Lowest maintenance

Centipede

Needs less feeding, grows slowly, and tolerates acidic soils. Heavy fertilizing and foot traffic both work against it.

Mowing height1 to 2 in

Mowing heights follow LSU AgCenter guidance. In shaded yards, St. Augustine can be kept at 3 to 3.5 inches.

Mowing Schedule

How Often Should You Mow a Lawn in New Orleans?

Mow by height, not the calendar. Cut whenever the lawn reaches about one and a half times its target height, so you never remove more than a third of the blade, as LSU AgCenter recommends. In New Orleans that usually means every 5 to 7 days in spring, weekly or more in summer, and rarely from late November through February.

SpringMarch to May
Every 5 to 7 days

Lawns begin to green up in March. The first fertilizer goes down in April.

SummerJune to August
Weekly, sometimes twice a week

Heat and frequent storms speed growth, especially on Bermuda.

FallSeptember to mid-November
Every 10 to 14 days by late fall

Growth slows as temperatures cool. Let height set the schedule.

WinterLate November to February
Rarely

Warm-season grass is mostly dormant, though St. Augustine may stay partly green in a mild winter. A light trim to clear leaves is usually enough.

  • Best time of dayMid-morning, about 8 to 10 a.m., once the dew has dried.
  • After rainWait until the grass is dry. LSU AgCenter advises against mowing wet grass.
  • The one-third ruleNever remove more than a third of the blade in one cut.
