So, you’re thinking about laying some turf during the cooler months… but aren’t sure if it’s the right thing to do. Is it a good time of year? Is it too cold? Will the lawn like the weather? All these questions, plus many more, are asked by our customers all year round and we are here to tell you, once and for all.
Winter is a Great Time to Lay Turf.
There is a common belief that planting is limited to the warmer months. And while there are valid reasons for this as far as plants go, laying turf in Australia can be done year round.
Keep reading if you would like to hear all about the benefits to laying turf once the temperatures start to drop… your yard will thank you!
There are a variety of benefits when it comes to laying turf in the cooler months, such as:
While your lawn is still establishing itself and self-repairing it is not as resilient, so extra care should be taken to reduce foot traffic, pets and garden furniture on your new lawn. But don’t let this be a deterrent to laying new turf. Installing new turf in the winter period means you will have a fully established and mature root system capable of handling a hot summer in its first year.
Just keep in mind, when laying a new lawn in winter the lawn will not root down properly until the weather warms up and it starts growing again. This doesn’t mean anything is wrong, and your lawn isn’t dying - it is simply sitting idle until it gets some warmer temperatures so it can fully establish.
Quality turf will guarantee you the best start to your outdoor space. To see what turf is right for you, see our ‘Which turf is right for me?’ .
