Turf Varieties

Common Green Couch

A native couch, Common Green is a low maintenance grass, has a medium /fine texture with medium density and height. This grass will withstand extremes of heat and dry and will wear well.

The Queensland Education Department frequently specifies this grass for their schools. Wears well but can have a slightly clump appearance. Is also recommended for Batters, Gullies and road edges.

Greenlees Park Couch

This grass has the ability to withstand wear and tear, yet maintain an attractive appearance.

It is quick to establish by sending down a strong root system. A high level of thatch inhibits weed infestation.

Currently installed at such venues as the Royal Pines and Palm Meadows Golf Courses it is also stipulated for many estates including Kingswood.

Due to the high level of thatch a yellow, scalped look may appear if your lawn is left too long between mowing. Greenlees Park therefore requires more frequent mowing to retain its peak appearance.
