We supply lush Sir Walter DNA Certified Buffalo grass, known for its softer leaf texture, making it ideal for families and kids to play on. This turf is water-efficient and recovers quickly from wear and tear. One of the standout benefits of Sir Walter DNA Certified Buffalo is its ability to thrive with just two to three hours of direct sunlight per day, making it perfect for areas with partial shade.

FAQs
On a hot day in Hervey Bay, freshly cut green turf will begin to yellow very quickly and should be laid as soon as possible. It will turn a pale yellow after just one day, losing its green colour more the longer it stays on the pallet. During summer, turf shouldn’t be left on the pallet for more than two days. When it gets cooler, it will usually last a bit longer. If the turf is cut dormant during winter it will last on a pallet for a few weeks.
If you haven’t laid your turf straight away and it begins to yellow on the pallet, you should get it installed quickly and watered straight away. After the colour reaches a deep yellow shade, your turf will need to produce new blades to get green again. It will still survive in most cases, just watch carefully for root growth. The plants will produce root growth even if the top is not green. Very tiny, fuzzy white shoots indicate the turf is growing. In summer months, you’ll see root growth within three to five days when you’re watering the turf properly.
