Soft Leaf Buffalo

This variety of Buffalo is extremely soft compared to the older types and has a healthy green appearance.

Soft Leaf Buffalo is a shallow rooting grass requiring more water in Summer than Kikuyu or the Couches.

The thick matting which comes with age makes it essential that you install your buffalo well below kerb height. The thick matting also prevents a lot of weeds from appearing. However, if weeds get a hold, Buffalo is more susceptible to most herbicides and manual weeding is recommended.

Soft leaf Buffalo is not drought resistant under W.A. conditions.
