Get a luxurious green lawn for your Sydney home

A great lawn can transform a drab view into a functional inviting space and can have a major impact on how you enjoy the time you spend at home! DNA Certified Sir Walter turf is a luxurious soft green lawn that is ideal for Sydney conditions.

Here are five reasons that DNA Certified Sir Walter is perfect for Sydney Homes.

 

1. PERFECT FOR SYDNEY’S CLIMATE CONDITIONS

DNA Certified Sir Walter Turf is Australia’s #1 Buffalo Lawn, developed here in Australia, and can handle just about anything the Sydney weather can throw at it. Sir Walter has no problem with:

  • Sun
  • Extreme Heat
  • Shade and part-shade
  • Salt
  • Drought
  • Frost

2. BEST ALL ROUND GRASS VARIETY

Since 1997, there have been over 50 million metres of Sir Walter sold Australia wide – the equivalent of over 350,000 homes. There really is no match for DNA Certified Sir Walter in Sydney.

DNA Sir Walter Turf has:

  • tolerance to shade, so it will grow in as little as three hours of direct sun a day
  • a tight growth habit that crowds out weeds
  • the ability to repair itself quickly if harmed, meaning fewer bare patches
  • less vulnerability to damage from pests
  • better disease resistance than other varieties
  • less need for maintenance than many other grass varieties, freeing you up to enjoy your lawn and the Sydney lifestyle

3. SUITS THE SYDNEY LIFESTYLE

Is there a better feeling than a soft buffalo grass underfoot? A vibrant green lawn can be the centre of your home life – ideal for entertaining outside with barbecues or picnics. They also serve as a great place for pets and kids to play.

A Sir Walter lawn will serve as the ideal setting for a game of backyard cricket. For backyard sports with the kids, you can rest assured knowing they can enjoy being outside with a soft ground to catch their fall if necessary.

Sir Walter is tough enough to put up with a lot of wear. And if there’s a spot that gets worn bare under a swing, it doesn’t take forever to patch itself up when you move the playset

4. IT WILL HELP YOU TO DE-STRESS

Green spaces can form the centrepiece of your lifestyle, but they can also serve as an important aspect of your health and wellbeing. Research has shown that natural landscapes can improve both physical and emotional wellbeing and help you unplug from the hustle and bustle of a large city like Sydney.

As the APA Designers Center explains:

Lawns act as living, breathing, filtration and cooling ‘air-conditioning’ systems. Consider the difference a nice soft lawn would feel compared to a sun-reflecting, heat-absorbing, concrete patio.

Natural spaces have been shown to reduce stress-related muscle tension, lower blood pressure and improve attention and reduce feelings of aggression or fear in people who encounter them. Come home and relax!

DNA Certified Sir Walter will help you breathe easy as it is a low-allergy turf option.

“A nature view out of the window is more than just pleasant; in fact, a nature view can help patients heal faster. In one frequently cited study, patients recovering from gallbladder surgery that had a view of trees outside their windows recovered faster than patients whose windows faced a brick wall (Ulrich, 1984).”

5. INCREASES THE VALUE OF YOUR HOME

While the benefits of a green lawn in your Sydney property may be obvious to you as the homeowner, it is also worth considering the role your DNA Certified Sir Walter lawn could play in the overall value of the property — especially in the event you decide to sell.

Sir Walter has long been the brand for the premium back yards of house-proud Sydneysiders, because of the way it looks. Luscious, verdant green, soft to touch and a thick growth-habit have a uniquely luxurious look and feel. You can really notice the difference between how Sir Walter and the other varieties look and feel.

The benefits you experience as a proud lawn owner will also appeal to many other buyers, and a vibrant healthy green front lawn will create instant curb appeal. Some experts suggest that a well-kept lawn can improve the value of your home from 10–20%! Now there’s a sound investment!

As you can see, DNA Certified Sir Walter turf is an ideal choice for Sydney lawns. It is ideal for Sydney weather conditions; can help you craft an oasis in your own yard; can contribute to health and happiness and if you ever decide to sell up, it will help you get the best return on your investment.
