Zoysia Australis is a new breed of zoysia japonica and is like no other zoysia we have seen before
Zoysia Australis is tough and hardy, providing a zoysia solution for Aussie families that can go in a wide range of areas. It can stand up to the stresses of a family and pets and has shade tolerance to thrive where other grasses falter.
Zoysia Australis is the perfect example of a grass that offers unique traits and characteristics unlike any other, which is why we are so excited we are now able to launch this incredible new variety.
The Zoysia for Families
Zoysia Australis has some unique qualities when it comes to the changing of the season and during dormancy can even develop a beautiful red hue.
Bred by the World’s Best!
Zoysia Australis was bred at the world famous University of Georgia, Tifton Campus by Dr Brian Schwartz. Dr Schwartz is renowned as the scientist behind the release of the highly successful TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda. Zoysia Australis arrived in Australia back in 2018 with a range of other elite zoysia grasses. After extensive trials in a range of conditions and applications, Zoysia Australis was selected for commercial release. Zoysia Australis offers significant benefits and a real point of difference from the other turf varieties available to consumers.
With every Zoysia Australis purchase, no matter how big or small, you will be issued with a 10 year Product Warranty Certificate to give you reassurance that you’re buying quality turf, covered by warranty.
