The drought tolerant hybrid bermuda Grass, forged by the best turf grass scientists
Australia’s long dry summers and droughts can be brutal on lawns —and even more so on your water use and bill. TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda Grass was developed by the world’s leading turf scientist with this challenge in mind. There is a new benchmark for drought tolerance in turf grass in Australia.
TifTuf is a grass that has been bred to stand up to drought conditions and save you water. TifTuf has become the new benchmark when it comes to measuring the drought tolerance of turf.
With the current drought and water restrictions in parts of NSW, Tiftuf can be established with a fraction of the water that most other varieties require. Part of this is due to its rapidly establishing root system that can see it take root in less than 7 days, which can be up to 75% quicker than other varieties.
- Can take root in less than 7 days, up to 75% faster than other varieties
- Needs a fraction of the water other varieties require to get established
- Superior drought tolerance requiring on average 38% less water than other varieties
