Master Class Lawns

14/10/2026

Introducing the new Master Class Lawns display lawn in Port Geographe. Featuring TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda, this full-sun lawn will become a showcase of what can be achieved through consistent, considered turf management.

From mowing heights and presentation to nutrition, moisture management and seasonal treatments, every detail plays a role in developing a truly exceptional lawn.

The goal? To demonstrate the full potential of TifTuf when it’s maintained to the highest standard.

Choosing the right turf for your particular needs isn’t simply a matter of pulling a name out of a hat.

There are a lot of variables that can influence which turf is going to perform best. Such as soil, shade, foot traffic, intended use, mowing height, maintenance requirements and even the location itself.

Two lawns can look almost identical on installation day, yet require completely different turf varieties to perform at their best long term.

There’s no real “one turf fits all” solution. The right choice comes down to understanding the site and matching the turf to what it actually needs.

With an extensive history in the turf industry, including experience in turf farming, I’m always happy to have a chat and help point you in the right direction.

KIKUYU. Love it or hate it, it definitely has its place.

We’re seeing a fair bit of Kikuyu going into new homes around Busselton, particularly in the newer estates. Often, the choice of turf is made before the homeowner has much say in it.

Having worked on turf farms around Gingin, maintaining and repairing sports fields, I’ve seen firsthand just how aggressively this stuff can grow.

Under commercial growing conditions, I’ve seen Kikuyu go from being harvested to ready for another harvest in around 6–9 weeks during the growing season. That’s a lot of growth in a short amount of time.

That’s exactly why it’s such a popular turf. It’s tough, it recovers well, and it can handle a fair bit of traffic.

The downside? It can be a bit of a handful in the home lawn.

When it’s growing strongly, Kikuyu can build up thatch and runners pretty quickly if it’s not kept on top of. Leave it too long and you can end up with a thick, spongy lawn that isn’t performing as well as it should.

Regular mowing with a decent, heavy mower and keeping the thatch under control makes a big difference.

It’s not a bad turf. It just has its own requirements.

And if you’re wanting to keep it short, dense and looking its best, it generally demands a bit more attention than just a mow every now and then.

Just sharing a bit of my experience with it.

Two weeks ago, this turf received a carefully timed application of slow-release granular nutrition and biostimulants to encourage recovery and renewed growth heading into spring.

The result? A healthier, more responsive playing surface that’s now starting to stripe beautifully.

Springs back! Stripes are coming back!

Coastal living comes with particular turf maintenance requirements. There is no one-size-fits-all approach.
