Palmetto is the most popular type of Buffalo grass due to its low upkeep requirements, durability, and excellent shade tolerance. When it comes to a dense lawn with good wear tolerance, Palmetto is the best option for Brisbane households with dogs and children.
Palmetto grass is a low-maintenance broad-leaf species that looks great in any yard and needs significantly less water and mowing than other types of turf. One of Palmetto's most distinguishing features is the persistence of its original dark emerald hue throughout the winter. Palmetto Buffalo is drought-resistant and has a deep root system, making it an efficient water collector.
