Types of Instant Lawn

There are many types of grass one could use; however, in general, they can be best categorized as warm season and cold season grasses.

Some grass prefers sun, some shade, others only flourish in a certain type of soil.

4 Popular lawn choices:

Kikuyu:

Kikuyu grass grows rapidly, making it perfect for high-traffic areas and sports fields.

Additionally, its vibrant green colour and ability to recover from damage make it a favourite among homeowners and landscapers.

Kikuyu grass thrives in full sun and can tolerate some shade, especially in temperate and subtropical climates.

Regular mowing and irrigation are essential for a healthy Kikuyu lawn; otherwise, neglect can cause invasive growth.

Overall, Kikuyu grass provides an attractive, low-maintenance choice for those desiring a lush, vibrant lawn.
