The McKays Buffalo Blend contains one of the very few drought-tolerant North American Buffalo grasses suitable for lawn use. It is also the only Buffalo variety available in seed in Australia.
Buffalo grass is a warm season grass, thriving in the warmer climates of Australia. Once established it has a very fine, medium-dark green leaf that is very soft to walk on. This is a different look to the broad leaf turf type varieties.
McKays Buffalo Blend is an excellent summer active lawn, greenest during the hottest months of the Summer. Working in combination with the Perennial Ryegrass in this blend, it has good shade, drought and frost tolerance. Being a runner variety of grass, Buffalo is also highly durable, possessing the ability to self repair from heavy use and damage.
Buffalo lawns remain dormant longer than other warm season grasses in the Winter and will brown off with the first frost. The Perennial Ryegrass in this mix becomes active in the cooler temperatures to provide both protection for the Buffalo during dormancy and a green Winter lawn.
The Buffalo Blend is a great, affordable option for establishing a magnificent Buffalo lawn from scratch. Our Buffalo Blend is an excellent choice for anyone looking to create a lush patch of Buffalo heaven. You can have a thriving Buffalo lawn in a matter of weeks for a fraction of the cost of turf and we have 100’s of happy customers to prove it!
