Winter can be a great time to lay turf - but it does depend on the variety.

We often hear people say they'll wait until spring before installing a new lawn, but winter has some surprising advantages like lower water requirements and less heat stress.

That said, not all turf varieties behave the same way in winter.
In the past, we have carried out our own trials with Zoysia varieties, including Sir Grange and Zoysia Australis. While the turf survived the colder conditions, we found it didn't establish roots effectively over winter. Because of this, we won't be recommending or selling these varieties during the colder months.

Sir Walter DNA Certified, TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda and Eureka Kikuyu, however, will all continue to establish through winter conditions - it just takes a little longer than it would during the warmer months.
Your lawn may not green up as quickly as it would in summer, but with the right variety, roots will continue developing and be ready to take off when the warmer weather arrives.

So, if you're thinking about a new lawn this year, don't write off winter just yet!

"It's winter, I can stop watering... right?"
Not necessarily. Here's what Jason Hodges recommends:

🌱 FUN FACT FRIDAY 🌱

Have you been seeing this w**d pop up around your place lately?
Well, did you know that purslane aka pig w**d (Portulaca oleracea) is actually completely edible?

It's considered a highly nutritious "superfood", and every part of the plant can be eaten - including the leaves, stems, flowers and even the seeds. Apparently, it tastes similar to lettuce with a slightly tangy flavour... although we still probably wouldn't recommend harvesting your lawn w**ds for dinner 😅

If purslane has popped up in your lawn, the best way to remove small amounts is by chipping it out by hand.

The good news? Purslane generally only takes hold in sparse or thin lawns. A thick, healthy lawn is your best defence. Regular mowing encourages lateral growth, helping your lawn spread and thicken naturally so w**ds have less room to establish.

If there's too much to remove manually, a herbicide such as Bow & Arrow can be used on established lawns.⚠️ Just remember: never spray newly laid turf, as herbicides can damage immature grass.

Let’s be honest... your lawn’s had a rough run.

After a hot, dry summer, most lawns across the Hunter are looking a bit tired (even the good ones). And now winter’s coming - which doesn’t exactly help.

The mistake we see every year?
People wait until winter to do something about it, but by then, it’s already too late.

We’ve just sent out our first newsletter - The Good Lawn Guide (Winter Edition) - covering exactly what you should be doing right now to give your lawn the best chance heading into winter (and bouncing back in spring).

If you didn’t get it, we’ve attached it here 👇

Unfortunately due to technical issues, this newsletter is slightly delayed. However, the information remains relevant, and there is still time to take action and get the most out of the advice and recommendations included below.
