Two types of grass that we use for a semi shaded or shaded area in the cape. All About Nature supplies and installs roll on lawns.
Buffalo Grass –
Buffalo grass is native to North America. It is the only native grass that is also useful as a lawn grass. Buffalo grass lawns are warm season turf which are drought tolerant with better cold resistance than other warm season grasses. The grass is quite tolerant of a range of conditions and establishes with seed, sod or plugs. As an extra bonus, care of buffalo grass is minimal and mowing is infrequent. As a wild plant, buffalo grass is an important range and pasture plant used by native and domestic grazers.
LM Berea –
LM Berea is a popular lawn in Kwazulu Natal. It has an outstanding reputation for shade tolerance. It is a medium coarse textured creeping grass and is a lighter shade of green than most lawns. It is well suited to shady areas and has excellent tolerance of drought and heat. It has moderate traffic tolerance and is a fast growing lawn.
