Weed-Resistant Grasses

If your lawn’s going to have adults, kids and pets playing and snoozing on it all day, or your garden’s growing organic fruits and vegetables to feed your loved ones, you don’t want it misted in toxic herbicides. And however you’re using your lawn, nobody in all of Victoria actually likes weeding.

Our weed-resistant turf will keep your Melbourne garden pure and make your life a heck of a lot easier.

How to improve your grass’s weed resistance

As we said above, the three grass types we’ve recommended are already quite good at suppressing irritating weeds. They get their ability from the density of their root mats, which spread and grow fast and thick and choke weeds before they can erupt. But with the right care, you can improve their weed resistance.

We’ve got an extensive online lawn weed control supply shop. But let us recommend two products you ought to know about.

• Add Oxafert Pre-Emergent Fertiliser to your lawn during installation (and then every two months), and it’ll prevent any weed seeds from germinating.
• Amgrow Chemspray Bin-Die is a highly selective weed killer. It’ll treat Bindi, thistle, clover, catsear and other broad-leaf weeds without damaging your lawn.

Oh, and a little tip: regularly mowing your lawn will help foster tighter growth, which will help suppress and prevent weeds from growing.
