Pure Kikuyu Seed 1KG

Kikuyu turf is a popular and economical choice for a wide range of applications, from residential lawns and school grounds to sports fields. As a warm-season variety, it flourishes in hot, sunny conditions and is renowned for its aggressive growth habit (via both above-ground runners and deep rhizomes), allowing it to establish quickly and repair damage almost before your eyes.

Key Benefits:

• Exceptional Durability: Withstands heavy foot traffic from kids and pets, making it a true hard-wearing lawn.

• Excellent Drought Tolerance: Its deep root system helps it seek out water, reducing your watering needs compared to many other varieties.

• Quick Recovery: Damage is rapidly filled in, ensuring your lawn maintains a consistent, lush appearance.

• Vibrant Colour: Maintains a bright, attractive green colour throughout the warmer months.

Kikuyu performs best in full sun and on well-drained, fertile soil. While its vigorous growth requires regular mowing during peak season, its resilience and low-maintenance nature (once established) make it an incredibly practical and cost-effective choice.

Germination Temperature

Kikuyu requires a soil temperature of at least 20°C to germinate reliably. For best results, sow in spring to early summer (October–February) when soil temperatures are consistently warm.
