Lawns by Lilydale Instant Lawn
|
If you are uncertain as to what type of lawn will best suit your situation, read the following brief descriptions of our lawns.
|
If you have a shaded area that is not too damp, or if you have large trees, then you require our Sir Walter Buffalo Lawn which is the most shade resistant turf we sell. Sir Walter is a new variety of Buffalo. It is unlike the old "scratchy" lawn, it has a soft leaf which when you walk on, it appears spongy.
|
If this is an area for your children to play in then we suggest the Sir Walter Buffalo Lawn, which is quite soft, and being a creeping lawn, repairs itself if the children happen to damage any areas. Unlike Village Green & Kikuyu it only creeps over the surface, therefore is easy to keep out of your garden beds. Village Green & Kikuyu may be another option though purely for its aggression.
|
If your dog has already destroyed what lawn you have or you know they are likely to dig, then we would suggest the Village Green & Kikuyu. (Sunny areas only) These are fast growing aggressive lawn. It will get into garden beds if not contained. However, it grows very quickly and therefore will repair itself fairly quickly. Do keep in mind that the lawn will need to establish before you can let you're dog loose on the lawn. The Village Green has some winter activity, which allows it to stay greener over winter than the traditional Kikuyu, which goes dormant over the winter period.
|
If you require a lawn that requires very little mowing and watering then Sir Walter Buffalo is your lawn. It is drought resistant, and quite slow growing, depending on the amount of water and fertiliser used it will probably need mowing every two to three weeks in summer and hardly in winter. If for some reason it was left without being mown for over a month during the growing period, it can be cut back harshly and it will recover in a couple of weeks, although this is not recommended.
