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.

Friendly and helpful staff who went above and beyond for me. Gave me brochures for my customer to ensure they knew how best to look after their lawn with watering and weeding and fertilising tips. Definitely going back.
Jonathan Colquhoun
Daley's Turf have amazing quality products and they take the time to give you the best advice. Great people producing the best turf.
Angela De Paula Assis
Daleys Turf have the most incredible customer service. We dealt with Carmel, Harley, Pat and Michael, all of whom were patient and generous with their time and advice when we needed some guidance to care for our 6 month old lawn. I highly recommend Daleys Turf.
Scott Hutchison
Terry and his team are fantastic people to deal with. They have a real wealth of knowledge, are extremely helpful and were happy to advise us on the best turf for our landscape situation. They even lent me a roller!! 😁Thanks again Tezz.
Karra Haight
Terry and Harley worked absolute wonders! So happy with our new lawn... from start to finish they were really easy to deal with and offered great advice! As soon as it was laid it looked like it had been there forever and it took to the soil beautifully! Terry was kind enough to give me his sprinkler and tap timer when he noticed ours had been broken - above and beyond! Pictures just under 4 weeks after installation - front before mow, inside fence after it's first mow! These are unedited... it's so green!! Thank you Daleys Turf!
Bruce Fraser
We are very happy with our new lawn laid recently by Daleys turf. We found Harley and all the staff at Daleys not only friendly but very professional. We found them very competitive and the job was carried out with the minimal of fuss. We would have no hesitation in recommending Daleys Turf.

Roslyn BYRNE
We’re very happy with the Sir Walter laid by Daleys Turf. This is its first winter and the area doesn’t get a lot of sun, but we are thrilled with how well it is going and how it has retained its greenness. We still have some further renovation work to do on our yard but having the turf laid gave it a brilliant start. Daleys Turf also have great customer service and follow up from time to time to see how their handiwork is going! Highly recommend this company!
louis zaragoza
I have a home putting green project and Daleys shipped me some zoysia sprigs through an overnight courier. Arrived a few days later but the sprigs were packaged very well and arrived in great condition. Daleys also followed up the order making sure the product was safe and happy to give some guidance with the care and planting of the sprigs. 1 week in and the grass is starting to get some shoots. Thanks guys.
Laleeta Sharma
We are very happy with Harley from Daleys Turf for doing our backyard. Excellent work, is of extremely high standard and very professional and down to earth person. I wish I had got our front yard done by Harley too!!
Mike Saunders
We have had a major landscaping project including a pool and over 200sq mtrs of turf. We chose Daleys Turf because they grow the turf, provide an installation service but most importantly because Pat who came round to quote was very knowledgeable and it would be him managing and laying the turf. Pat and the team arrived as agreed and worked hard all day and I find it difficult to find the words to describe the transformation they created for us. Pat worked with us all day checking it was going as we wanted and making suggestions that would help with drainage and looks. We are absolutely delighted with the outcome. Pat called a few days later to check all was well and we know he is just a phone call away if we need advice. We even got a lawn care pack at the end of the day! Daleys Turf were not the cheapest quote we got but we are so pleased we chose them. Thank you Pat and Team. A few of before and after pics but they don't do justice to the quality of the job.

The process from quote to finished product was very professional. I can't rate daleys turf high enough, even giving me helpful tips after the install to keep on top of my grass. If you want good quality turf and friendly staff willing to help you daleys turf is a no brainer.

The transformation in our backyard is simply amazing! Pat and his team were friendly and answered all of our questions prior to and during the project. The guys worked seamlessly and passionately to complete the task in just one day. Our yard has gone from an ugly mass of mud and bumps to a beautiful green smooth and silky lawn. Can't recommend Daleys Turf enough.

Jon O
What a bloody sensational job! Had the boys from Daley’s Turf supply and lay the turf at our house this morning. The Sir Walter turf was top notch quality (the deepest green I’ve ever seen) and all the workers were friendly, polite and very knowledgeable. Also had the privilege of meeting the owner when he came to quote the job, so a massive thanks to you Terry and your staff. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!!
Colette Taylor
Our excellent experience with Daleys Turf started when Harley Schenk arrived at our home to assess our requirements for a new front lawn. His expertise coupled with his friendly manner and detailed explanation created an immediate confidence that assurred us we had chosen the best company for our needs. Harley arrived on schedule, was well presented and wasted no time in preparing the quote. On the day of installation again he arrived on time with his colleague Patrick and together they carried out the task. They were painstaking in their efforts in preparing the site and laying the new turf. I have witnessed many lawns being laid in our suburb and I can honestly state that my lawn stands out from the rest, due to the quality of the product and the meticulous standard of Harley's workmanship. If you think your lawn is in need of replacement do not hesitate to engage Harley at Daleys Turf, you will not be disappointed.
John Hadlow
What an amazing bunch of men. Friendly, efficient, very knowledgable. A special thanks to Terry who went above and beyond his work requirements. Much appreciated for all your help. I would have no trouble in recommending this company or their staff.
Christine Withanage
We requested a quote from Daleys Turf which we received in a very timely manner. They were punctual in the spraying and attended to the replacement of the grass in an excellent manner. They worked very hard on day day until the job was completed. Would be happy to recommend them to anyone needing new grass. Thanks,
Sean O'Connor
As everyone else has said. Expert advice. Terrific service. Highly recommended!
Matthew Martin
Terry and the team were amazing, we had 950m2 of Sir Grange laid and the team took extra care and detail in laying the grass. Terry was extremely accomodating in helping me get to my end goal, highly recommend Daley's Turf and look forward in utilising Terry and the team in the future, thank you.
Michael Dell

Jazzy B
Recently had over 1100 sqm of Sir Walter DNA Certified turf installed at my property by Daley's Turf. The turf is superb quality and looking fantastic in my front & backyards. The whole project management with Harley was 100% outstanding ~ from the initial & follow up consultations, soil preparation advice, help choosing the right turf for our block and finally the install with his small team. Absolute 5 star review to Daley's Turf for such an amazing project done to the highest level. Thanks 🙂
Megan Hockenhull
