People have high standards for residential grasses (as they well should). These grasses need to be hard-wearing and self-repairing, easy to maintain yet stunning enough to boost street value, and kind to allergies, little feet and furry paws.

Well, the grasses we’ve curated for you here will meet those standards. They are as functional as they are gorgeous, making them extremely versatile.

TifTuf is a wonderful choice for little siblings to play on or great galumphing dogs to bound across.

The fine-leaf drought-tolerant Kikuyu is a landscaper’s dream and tickles bare feet.

Sir Walter Buffalo, being a low-maintenance all-rounder, makes life easy in every respect.

As for maintenance, our seasonal lawn care guide will teach you just about everything you need to know.
