Whether you’re looking for the perfect soft-leaf grass for your kids to roll around on in your backyard, or you’re a landscaper tasked with turfing a commercial or public space, our job is to make your life as easy as possible.

We pride ourselves on being able to offer more than just high-quality soft-leaf turf varieties. We’ve also cultivated our grasses to thrive in Victoria’s ever-changing conditions.

We develop, grow and harvest all of our soft-leaf turf on our own Victorian estates, where they acclimate to local climate and soil. When we harvest, we slice our turf into thick-cut slabs packed with the nutrition they’ll need to quickly establish in any location.

Delivered anywhere

Our delivery team travels across Victoria. We’ll also bring a forklift to help prep your turf for installation.
Grown for Victoria

By growing our turf in Victoria, it acclimates to local conditions and becomes easier to care for.
Specialised harvesting techniques

We harvest our turf in thick slabs to keep their roots intact. That allows for extremely easy turf installation.
Complimentary starter kit

To make your grass even easier to install and maintain, we’ll send over a free order of premium lawn fertiliser.

You wouldn’t typically see a Buffalo grass on a list of soft-leaf grasses. Most Buffalo cultivars are, in fact, the opposite; the serrated edges of their leaves scrape against sensitive skin and create an uncomfortable carpet for picnics and play. They can also set off allergies in people and pets alike. So why have we included one on our list?

Unlike other Buffalo varieties, Sir Walter DNA Certified Buffalo grass has perfectly smooth leaves. But how that came to be is what’s so surprising. Sir Walter turf was developed in NSW in an effort to create a grass drought resistant enough to withstand Australia’s heat. As it was being cultivated for drought, successive generations began to naturally refine their blades into soft, smooth leaves. What luck!

Today, this miracle Buffalo is one of Australia’s most popular grasses.
