Yep Sandy, you do have a little leak there, that's the only way grass would be green right now! Everything else that hasn't been watered is so terribly dry. I'm afraid some of the St. Augustine grass that hasn't been watered won't come back (if it ever rains again). They have been talking about that here in Austin. St. Augustine that hasn't been watered may have to be replaced. Not that replacing it would be a bad thing, it wouldn't be bad because it is a very thirsty grass and it would be better to have something that required less water, for sure. But the expense of replacing it is what will really hurt (I'm talking all over town). I've kept mine alive this summer with lots of water, but I hate wasting water on the lawn.
