Premium Lawn Turf | 4 Best Grass Types In Melbourne

Whether you want the best front yard in the neighbourhood or a flawless lawn around your business, you’ve come to the right suppliers.

Our premium grass is worth its premium price

We’ve been growing, sourcing and supplying premium grass turf for over 40 years — nobody knows quality grass like we do.

Our Australian-origin Sir Walter DNA Certified Buffalo is Australia’s most popular grass. Unlike other Buffalo varieties, our premium Buffalo has been cultivated to improve drought tolerance, reduce pollen production, and grow cotton-soft smooth leaves (while other Buffalo grass grows serrated leaves).

Our TifTuf Bermuda is the first and only premium grass to ever earn the Smart Approved WaterMark. Ontop of it’s drought-hardiness, it’ll reward you with exceptional wear tolerance and a shorter dormancy period in winter.

Our Eureka Premium VG Kikuyu is a miracle. Aside from drought tolerance and self-repair qualities, we’ve also cultivated it to thrive in cold weather even when it enters dormancy.

Finally, we have our Sir Grange Zoysia: the crème de la crème. This grass is a fine-blade, slow-growth, dark-green ornamental stunner guaranteed to turn heads and drop jaws.
