13 May The Magic of Instant Green: Transforming Your Garden with Instant Lawn

When you picture the perfect residential property, what do you picture? Most imagine a gorgeous home with a perfectly green, perfectly maintained lawn. However, waiting for a fresh new lawn to grow can be frustrating, especially if you don’t have much gardening experience. No worries, there’s a great answer to your lawn needs – instant lawn. 

Are you dreaming of a lush lawn but don’t want to wait months for grass seed to grow? These ready-made lawns might be the perfect solution for you. But what is it, and how do you make sure yours stays beautiful? Continue reading to learn more.

What Is Instant Lawn?

This type of lawn is exactly what it sounds like – ready-made grass that can be laid down quickly to transform your garden into a beautiful green space. This grass is natural and beautiful and is grown by a team of professionals who know exactly what they’re doing. 

At Expert Turf, our ready-made lawns are supplied to you growing in rich, black topsoil, sourced from the nutrient-rich soil of New Zealand’s own Taranaki Maunga. This topsoil is known for its exceptional quality, providing the perfect foundation for vibrant grass to thrive. If you want healthy, strong and beautiful grass, having great soil is the first step.

Our instant lawn is designed to enhance your property and add instant street appeal. Whether you’re looking to create a play area for the kids or simply want to enjoy a beautiful lawn all year round, these lawns are the perfect solution.

Naturally, one of the greatest benefits of instant lawn is its convenience. Unlike traditional grass seed, which can take months to germinate and establish, this type of lawn can be laid at any time of the year. Whether you’re planning a backyard barbecue or hosting a garden party, this allows you to enjoy a lush, green lawn in no time.

At Expert Turf, we offer two varieties of grass to suit your needs:

Dwarf Rye/Fine Fescue Blend. This combines both of these types of grass to create a hardwearing blend with a fine texture. This hardy yet gorgeous grass is perfect for most situations, as it looks great and feels lovely and soft underfoot. It’s suitable for both full sun and semi-shade conditions, and is an excellent choice for families and outdoor entertaining areas.

Tall Fescue. One of the first things you’ll notice about this variety of grass is its distinctive appearance. Tc all Fescue is a robust kind of grass that has a gorgeous dark green hue. Its blades are broad and flat, giving it a lovely texture and bold look. Its wonderful, deep colour can add natural beauty to any space. With good drought and shade tolerance, Tall Fescue also wears well and is resistant to damage from insects.

A Few Tips For Keeping Your Instant Lawn Beautiful

Now that you know what this kind of lawn is all about, here’s some advice for ensuring your new dream lawn stays gorgeous:

Choose The Right Variety. Check out the two varieties of grass we have at Expert Turf and think about which would best suit your property. Consider important factors such as sunlight exposure, foot traffic and desired appearance when selecting your lawn variety. Our team can help you choose the best option for your specific needs if you’re not sure which you should get. We’ll also help you understand lawn maintenance and what you’ll need to do to maintain your variety of grass.

Water Regularly. Proper watering is absolutely essential for the success of your instant lawn. Try to avoid overwatering your lawn, as this can lead to serious fungal diseases and root rot. 

Fertilise As Needed. Depending on your soil conditions and the health of your lawn, you may need to fertilise periodically to ensure optimal growth. Choose a high-quality lawn fertiliser and apply it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Regular Maintenance. Keep your instant lawn looking its best by mowing regularly, removing weeds and aerating the soil as needed. Regular maintenance will help promote healthy growth and ensure that your lawn remains lovely and green year-round.

If you plan on maintaining your lawn yourself, make sure you keep the specific variety of your grass in mind. For instance, mowing is a key part of lawn care, but it can be dangerous to mow too low. Consider the recommended height for your grass. For example, for Tall Fescue, you’ll want to keep it mown high at around 50-75mm to keep it in good condition. 

Conversely, if you’d rather leave things up to the experts, you can entrust the work to our professional team.
