Legend Turf

Legend provides a drought tolerant, fine leafed and hard wearing home lawn that is very easy to mow. These properties make it very suitable for lawns in the Brisbane climate that will receive 8-10 hours of sun each day.

Legend has long been proven as the grass of choice for stadiums and golf courses around Australia and New Zealand. Telstra Stadium, Suncorp Stadium, Moonah Links Golf Course and the Portable Tennis Australia Davis Cup Court all chose this magnificent grass for its wear tolerance and rapid recovery.

If you are a sports enthusiast, or want the best all round couch for your home lawn, Legend is for you.

Legend General Information

Installing your Legend lawn

We suggest Legend is laid onto a prepared, levelled surface on top of 50-100mm of good quality topsoil, a sandy loam available from your local garden centre will be suitable. Once you have your new soil spread and flat, it is an ideal time to incorporate some extra nutrients and water crystals into your topsoil, apply Sir Turf Launcher at a rate of 30g per 100m² and rake it through gently. If you smooth your initial topsoil, you do not need to roll your Legend after installation.

When you receive your turf, we recommend it is laid immediately. Starting from one edge, place it down in an alternating brickwork pattern. To carry the turf around either use a wheelbarrow, or fold it in half, and carry the slab close to your chest with one arm under the turf. Any irregular bits, or small areas can be cut in using a machete, cane knife, shovel or other cutting implement.

If all of that work does not sound like your thing, why not take advantage of our laying service, it is only $1.65 per m² ($220 Minimum). Our expert turf installers arrive on the day of your turf delivery, spread any required fertiliser, install your turf, cut-in those finniky edges and roll your lawn with expert precision.

Watering Your Legend Lawn

Once your Legend has been laid, it is very important it is watered immediately, especially in the hot climate of Brisbane turf needs to be well watered during the establishment period.

We recommend the following watering schedule, please check with your local council to ensure you comply with appropriate water restrictions.

Timeframe	Watering Frequency
On the day	Immediately after installation.
1-7 days	1 hour morning and evening.
7-14 Days	1 hour morning or evening.

The establishment watering phase is very important, both to cool and hydrate your lawn, and to charge any water crystals you applied before installation.

If you have any questions about installation, or watering your turf, please contact us via phone, e-mail or use our enquiry form.
