Why Stampede

A hybrid buffalo built for shady yards

A newer soft leaf buffalo from Lawn Solutions Australia. It keeps the broad, deep green leaf people love about buffalo, and it will grow where the sun only reaches for a couple of hours a day.

  • Full sun to heavy shade, needs as little as 2 hours of sun a day
  • Very low maintenance, and a good self-repairer
  • Broad, soft leaf around 8mm wide, deep green
  • Rated 4 out of 5 for heat, frost, disease and salinity
  • No strong rhizome, so it will not take over your garden beds
  • AusGAP certified, with a 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.

  • Shade: 5 out of 5, minimum 2 hours of sun a day
  • Heat and frost: 4 out of 5

Establishment & care
  • Lay fresh on the day it is delivered
  • Water daily for the first 2 to 3 weeks
  • First mow once it has knitted down and stopped lifting
  • Feed through the warm months once established

Keep it at the longer end of the mowing range in shade to help it photosynthesise. Free draining soil is best.

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, that is what it is best at. Stampede rates 5 out of 5 for shade and will grow from full sun to heavy shade, as long as it gets at least 2 hours of sun a day.
How much water does it need?+
Water deeply right after laying, then daily for the first 2 to 3 weeks. Once established it needs far less. It rates 3 out of 5 for drought, so give it a deep drink in hot dry spells.
Stampede or Sir Walter?+
Both are soft leaf buffalo. Stampede is the newer hybrid, rated very low maintenance with top marks for shade. Sir Walter is the proven all rounder and costs a bit less per m². If your yard is shady, go Stampede.
Is it under warranty?+
Yes. Stampede comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a 10 year product warranty, and it is AusGAP certified.
