Zoysia Australis was bred by the world’s best

Dr Brian Schwartz bred Zoysia Australis at the world famous University of Georgia, Tifton Campus. Dr Schwartz is renowned as the scientist behind the release of the highly successful TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda. Zoysia Australis arrived in Australia back in 2018 with a range of other elite zoysia grasses. Zoysia Australis was selected for commercial release after extensive trials in a range of conditions and applications. This is a zoysia grass that offers significant benefits and a real point of difference from the other turf varieties available to consumers.

The Importance of Water

We recommend installing pop up/automatic irrigation during the preparation process. If you don’t want to DIY, the Turfco Team can recommend local suppliers. If automatic irrigation isn’t an option and you’re opting for a portable sprinkler system, we find that Wobble-Tee type sprinklers are the most effective in terms of coverage and water pressure. We encourage you have an established method of irrigation prior to the arrival of your new lawn. Although, we have Wobble-Tee Sprinklers available for purchase and delivery with your new Turfco lawn! Learn more and shop our Wobble-Tee Sprinklers. Download and follow our Watering Guide to ensure the success of your lawn.

WATERING GUIDE

Zoysia Australis is a warm-season turf variety. All warm-season turf varieties will enter a level of dormancy when [soil] temperatures decrease (during the cooler/winter periods). Some regions and particular turf varieties will experience higher levels of winter dormancy than others. Expect your lawn to lose colour during these cooler months as the plant growth rate slows down. Once temperatures increase, the growth rate will rise, and the lawn will return to a lush, green state. An application of Lawn Solutions ColourGuard Plus* will help to immediately bring a lush, green colour back to your lawn. The product will both give your lawn an instant green look and protect the blade of the turf up to 2 degrees warmer.

*Apply to established lawns only.
