Instant Turf FAQs

Here are some common questions about our Instant Turf.

What is instant turf?

Instant turf refers to pre-grown grass that is harvested and rolled out to create a new lawn quickly. It provides immediate greenery and can establish more rapidly compared to seeding. Instant turf is an excellent solution for achieving a lush, green lawn in a brief period, making it a popular choice for residential and commercial landscapes.

How much instant turf do I need?

The amount of instant turf you need depends on the size of the area you want to cover and the desired thickness. Use Daisy's Turf Volume Calculator to determine the precise quantity needed based on your space's dimensions and your specific project requirements.

Which instant turf is best for my garden?

The best turf for your garden depends on your specific requirements, including climate, soil type, and usage. Our range includes:

Eureka Kikuyu: Ideal for high-traffic areas and drought tolerance.
RTF Tall Fescue: Best for cool climates with self-repairing capabilities.
Sir Walter Buffalo: Perfect for shaded areas and high wear resistance.
TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda: Superior for drought-prone areas with excellent wear recovery.

Which instant turf requires the least maintenance?

For those seeking a low-maintenance option, Sir Walter Buffalo and TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda are excellent choices. Both varieties require minimal watering, infrequent mowing, and low fertiliser needs, making them ideal for busy homeowners or commercial properties looking to reduce lawn care time and effort.

Can instant turf grow in shaded areas?

Yes, certain types of instant turf, such as Sir Walter Buffalo, are specifically designed to thrive in shaded areas. This variety can flourish with as little as three hours of direct sunlight per day, making it suitable for gardens with partial shade.

How do I maintain my instant turf?

Maintenance varies by turf type but generally includes regular mowing, watering, and fertilising. Here are some general tips:

Mowing: Keep the grass at an optimal height based on the specific turf variety.
Watering: Water newly laid turf frequently to establish roots, then water as needed based on weather conditions.
Fertilising: Apply a high-quality lawn fertiliser at recommended intervals to promote healthy growth.

How often should I water my instant turf?

Watering frequency depends on the turf type and local climate conditions. Newly laid turf should be watered frequently to establish roots. Once established, most turf varieties require less frequent watering, primarily during dry spells or extremely hot weather. For example, Eureka Kikuyu and TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda have deep root systems that help them withstand drought conditions, requiring less water once established.

What is the best time to lay instant turf?

Instant turf can be laid at any time of the year, but for the best results, install it during the warmer months when the grass is actively growing. Spring and early summer are ideal times for laying most turf varieties, as the warmer temperatures promote rapid root development and growth.

Can I get instant turf delivered?

Yes, Daisy’s Garden Supplies offers delivery services across Melbourne, Geelong, and throughout Victoria. Our diverse fleet can handle orders of various sizes, ensuring timely and reliable delivery to meet your project needs.

Is instant turf suitable for homes with kids and pets?

Yes, many instant turf varieties, such as Sir Walter Buffalo and TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda, are designed to withstand high traffic and are soft underfoot, making them ideal for homes with kids and pets. These turf types have self-repairing capabilities and high wear tolerance, ensuring a lush and resilient lawn even with frequent use.
