2.Kikuyu grass
Kikuyu grass(A native grass in Kenya) is a very fast growing lawn grass that is common in Kenya and now known beyond the walls of east africa to the world. This grass has an enhanced lateral growth in cold areas.
Shade tolerance
In the cold areas, Kikuyu grass has good shade tolerance. In the warm middle and low altitude areas, the grass has very poor shade tolerance. It should therefore be grown in full sun.
Drought and heat tolerance
Kikuyu grass has medium tolerance to heat and drought. Irrigation is therefore advised in hot and dry areas. Fertilize your lawn properly and allow it to grow densely for it to withstand episodes of drought.
Where should Kikuyu grass be grown
Kikuyu grass can be grown for a wide variety of uses. It is mostly suitable in utilities such as road sides, railway line shoulders, public parks and general uses where aesthetics is not a major consideration. This type of grass is also used in golf fairways. You have any of the above and you've been thinking how to go about it,just give us a call or inbox us on our page Amani Lawn Care
