Why Sir Walter

Australia's number one buffalo, soft and tough

A DNA certified buffalo bred for Aussie conditions. Soft enough for kids and pets, hard enough to handle a busy backyard, and it holds its colour through winter.

  • Handles up to 75% shade, so it suits trees and fence lines
  • High drought resistance with deep roots into the subsoil
  • High wear, and self-repairs quickly from damage
  • Soft, broad leaf that is low-allergenic and soft underfoot
  • Tight growth habit that crowds out most weeds
  • Backed by a nationwide 10 year product warranty
Laying your new lawn

From bare ground to lawn in three steps

1
Prepare the ground

Kill off the old grass and weeds, level the surface, and spread a layer of quality turf underlay or soil.

2
Lay the turf

Lay it fresh on the day it arrives. Stagger the joints like brickwork, butt the rolls up tight, then roll or tamp it down.

3
Water in

Water deeply straight after laying, then keep it moist daily for the first 2 to 3 weeks while the roots take.

Questions

Good to know

How is it delivered, and how fresh is it?+
It is cut to order and delivered fresh from the farm, sold by the square metre. Have your ground ready so you can lay it the same day it arrives.
How soon can I mow it?+
Wait until the turf has rooted down and no longer lifts when you tug a corner, usually around 2 to 3 weeks. Keep the first cut high.
Will it grow in shade?+
Yes. Sir Walter handles up to 75% shade, which makes it one of the better choices for yards with trees or fences. It still needs a few hours of light.
How much water does it need?+
Water deeply right after laying, then daily for the first 2 to 3 weeks. Once established it is highly drought tolerant and needs far less.
Is it under warranty?+
Yes. Genuine Sir Walter comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a nationwide 10 year product warranty, and it is AusGAP certified.
