Sir Walter Soft Leaf Buffalo Turf

- Winter Active, Low Thatch, Environmentally Responsible!

/>

Sir Walter is the premium choice in turf for the Australian lifestyle and climate. Sir Walter Premium Lawn Turf is an Australian bred turf, meaning that all the qualities and requirements to suit our harsh climate have been bred into Sir Walter soft leaf buffalo. There are essential characteristics that set Sir Walter apart from other buffalo and couch varieties:

	Fact Sheet:
	Sunlight Requirement: Minimum 3 hours per day Invasive? No Mower: Rotary mowing - no less than 25mm in spring, and 30mm in summer Depth of Soil for Planting: 15mm below any driveways or paving Herbicide Tolerance: Yes Recovery Rate: Slow, but quicker than the Palmetto Buffalo Leaf Pattern: Horizontal to the ground Fertiliser after Installation: Scotts Lawn Builder or other Soil Conditioner Preparation Before for Best Results: Loosen the soil with a rotary or spade to a depth of 50-75mm Watering: Immediately after laying or fertiliser application. Once established, deep infrequent watering

Easier Management

Sir Walter requires no special skill or knowledge. The average homemaker is on safe ground, because Sir Walter thrives in either full sun or shade. Sir Walter has proven to be the water and nutrient efficient of the premium lawn turfs and this, together with its resistance to pest and disease challenge, and dense low thatch growing habit ensures easier management.

Environmentally Friendly

Sir Walter is less chemical dependent because it, better than all other buffalo types, resists common fungal diseases and insect pests usually associated with other soft leaf buffalo lawns.

Wear

Sir Walter turf is better able to withstand and recover from everyday wear and tear. This is because it couples the longest growing season of any buffalo turf, with a high-density, low thatch characteristic. An additional benefit is its ability to grow in shaded situations where other varieties, such as Kikuyu and Couch, would struggle.

Appearance

Sir Walter has what many see as the best colour of all grasses, and importantly, it has the ability to maintain that colour through the widest range of adverse conditions. Sir Walter's winter complexion may, under extreme conditions, dim, but to a much lesser degree than most other buffalo, couch and kikuyu lawns.
