Nullarbor Couch Grass: The Sports Enthusiast’s Choice
Nullarbor Couch Grass, known for its fine leaf texture and vibrant green colour, is a popular choice for sports fields, golf courses, and homeowners seeking a manicured lawn appearance. This variety thrives in full sun and delivers a dense, low-growing turf that can tolerate heavy foot traffic, making it ideal for active outdoor areas.
One of the key advantages of Nullarbor Couch Grass is its ability to recover quickly from wear and tear. This resilience is particularly beneficial for high-traffic areas, ensuring that the turf remains robust and visually appealing even under stress. Additionally, Nullarbor Couch Grass requires less mowing than some other varieties, thanks to its slow vertical growth, making it a low-maintenance option for busy homeowners and groundskeepers.
However, it’s worth noting that Nullarbor Couch Grass does require a commitment to regular maintenance, including fertilisation and weed control, to maintain its optimal condition. It also needs a good amount of sunlight to thrive, so it may not be the best choice for shaded areas.
