Description
Munns Professional Kikuyu Lawn Seed Blend contains a combination of premium turf grade Emerald Kikuyu and Improved Turf Type Perennial Ryegrass. Emerald Kikuyu is less invasive, has a richer green colour and finer leaf texture than regular Kikuyu, growing into a beautiful, dense green lawn. Kikuyu lawns can handle wear and tear, and a wide range of temperatures.
Perennial Ryegrass in the seed blend acts as a mother crop, helping to protect and support the growth of the Kikuyu, and you’ll see Ryegrass germination within 5-7 days *. The Kikuyu will become the dominant grass over time, however, it is very important to keep mowing the Ryegrass to allow warmth and light into the Kikuyu so it can germinate and establish.
Munns Professional Kikuyu Lawn Seed Blend is coated with an advanced germination booster. It’s important for the soil to remain moist during the germination process.
* Germination times are dependent upon temperature and soil moisture levels. Germination may take longer than specified during cold periods and when soil is not kept sufficiently moist.

Broadcast the contexts of this pack evenly using the built-in spreader on top of pack.4. Rake again lightly at angles (90 degrees) to the original furrows.5. Keep the top 1cm of soil moist at times during germination using a fine mist spray. This may require watering several times a day especially in hot and windy conditions.6. Mow the lawn when the grass is 5-6cm high and just cut the top 2cm off this encourages root growth.
