Choosing the Perfect Grass for your Lawn
When it comes to picking the best turf for your lawn, climate, upkeep, and looks all play a big part. At I Love Turf, we’re a trusted Sunshine Coast turf grower, supplying top-quality grass to homeowners and businesses across the Sunshine Coast, Greater Brisbane, and beyond. Whether you’re sprucing up your backyard or tackling a large-scale landscaping project, we’ve got the perfect turf for you.
Things to Consider When Choosing Turf
- Climate Suitability – The Sunshine Coast and Brisbane regions have warm, humid summers and mild winters, so drought-resistant and tough turf varieties are a great choice.
- Shade Tolerance – Some yards cop full sun all day, while others have shaded areas under trees or buildings.
- Wear Resistance – If you’ve got kids, pets, or high foot traffic areas, a hardy turf is a must.
- Maintenance Needs – Some turfs need regular mowing and fertilising, while others are easy-care.
