Installation Guide

Perth is well known for its sandy soils so prior to laying your new lawn the addition of some key nutrients will give your lawn the best start possible.

Kikuyu roll-on turf can take 4-6 weeks to establish itself after installation. During this time, heavy traffic on the new lawn is not recommended. Your new kikuyu lawn will not require mowing for at least 4 weeks while the roots become established
