Home Lawns and Landscaping

Please look after your investment and maintain your Legend couch grass:

Watering

• Water only when your lawn needs it. How often you water your lawn will depend on the weather and the soil you have
• The grass should be allowed to partly dry out between waterings. This lets in air to the root system, stimulates deeper root formation and creates a healthy more drought resistant lawn

Fertilising

• Fertilise regularly all year to ensure a healthy lawn and to deter weeds
• Apply a complete lawn food (22:5:8 or similar) at 30-40 grams per square metre
• Spread fertiliser evenly and water well, heavy concentrations will burn the lawn

Mowing

• Mow regularly at 15-30mm
• Keep mower blades sharp
• Severely reducing height in one cut should be avoided (no more than 1/3 of leaf height to be cut off in any one mowing)
• Low mowing will damage lawn
