Some of the many advantages or growing a Buffalo lawn include:
Shade Tolerant - If you have or plan to have trees selecting a shade tolerant grass is a must. This allows the grass to re-spawn even with minimal light from the sun. This will give you piece of mind that you will have a lushes lawn even when trees grow blocking a lot of the sunlight.
Low Maintenance - Perfect for the non green thumb. Another great advantage of Buffalo grass is that it has a very low tolerance for the heat meaning it perfect if you live in a hot climate. Another great advantage of this type of grass is that it uses two to three times less water than any other grass varieties that are on the market.
High Wear - High wearing grass means that it can be used in busy traffic areas, such as if you have a dog or a child that constantly plays on the grass. Warn areas of the grass will quickly re-spawn to minimise patchiness.
Low Water Use - Being that its low water use, you can have piece of mind you can go on that long holiday without coming back to a dried up dead lawn.
