Title: Turf Laying
Episode: 1 Hour WA Easter Special
Broadcast Date: 17th April
Presenter: Darren

As a West Aussie landscaper, Darren loves the look and feel of a great lawn. When used and installed correctly few things add as much value to a landscape than a soft, cool, natural lawn. When he was offered the chance to see how a top turf farm operates and how they go about growing his favorite turf variety, he jumped at the chance.

• Greenacres Turf Farm is based in Serpentine, South of Perth. They are premium turf growers and one of their biggest selling turf varieties is “Palmetto’.
• It’s clear what makes Palmetto such a great turf; it has a deep dark green foliage colour and a great soft feel, so it is not scratchy like the old types at all.
• Palmetto constantly outperforms other forms of buffalo turf. The winter colour is outstanding, deep green with no yellow or browning off. It also requires less mowing and generates far less thatch than what you would see with other varieties.
• Palmetto is also a low allergenic variety producing around 40% less seed head than other popular types.
• Palmetto is such an adaptable turf, and will work well anywhere in the Perth area, from to coast to hills. Sun or shade, Palmetto will perform year after year.
• This strong root system is a key to much of Palmetto’s success, giving it drought tolerance and the ability to crowd out weeds. It’s also gives it a much quicker recovery rate than other varieties of Buffalo, particularly in winter when other varieties are completely dormant.
• To make sure you get the world’s best buffalo turf for your garden always buy your turf from a trusted, top quality turf grower and ensure you get a certificate of Authenticity.
• Correctly installed Palmetto turf will thrive in our West Australian gardens, adding long term value an providing years of low maintenance enjoyment!
