All Seasons Evergreen Instant Lawn: Your Garden’s Year-Round Masterpiece

While most South African lawns go dormant and turn brown during the frosty winter months, our All Seasons Evergreen Instant Lawn remains vibrant, lush, and deep green. This premium variety is specifically curated for homeowners who refuse to settle for a “seasonal” garden and desire a manicured, estate-style aesthetic 365 days a year.

It is a fine-textured, soft-leafed grass that offers a level of luxury and comfort that rugged varieties simply cannot match. Whether you are hosting a winter braai or enjoying a summer afternoon on the grass, the Evergreen variety ensures your outdoor space always looks its absolute best.

Why Choose All Seasons Evergreen?

• Vibrant Winter Colour: Unlike Kikuyu, this variety does not enter a dormant state, meaning your garden stays green even when the temperature drops.

• Superior Softness: Its fine-leafed structure creates a dense, soft carpet that is perfect for bare feet and children’s play areas.

• Non-Invasive Growth: Unlike “creeping” grasses, this variety has a tufted growth habit. This means it won’t aggressively invade your flower beds, paving, or pool surrounds, significantly reducing your garden maintenance time.

• Excellent Versatility: It is remarkably adaptable, thriving in both full sun and semi-shaded areas where other grasses often struggle.

Essential Care & Maintenance

To maintain the signature deep green hue and structural health of an Evergreen lawn, consistency is key.

• Hydration is Critical: This variety is less drought-tolerant than Kikuyu. To keep it thriving, it requires a steady and consistent supply of approximately 25mm of water per week. This is best delivered through two to three deep watering sessions to ensure the moisture reaches the root zone.

• Mowing height: For the best appearance, keep the blades slightly longer (around 4cm–6cm). This protects the root system and helps the grass retain moisture.

Topsoil Tippers Professional Tip

In the heat of a Pretoria summer, keeping the grass at a 70mm height acts as a natural mulch. This helps you meet the 25mm weekly water requirement more efficiently, as the longer blades prevent the sun from baking the moisture out of the earth.

Frequently Asked Questions: All Seasons Evergreen

1. Does it really stay green all winter?

Yes. While Kikuyu and LM grass turn brown to protect themselves from the frost, the All Seasons Evergreen variety is frost-hardy and maintains its chlorophyll levels, ensuring a green lawn throughout the coldest months in Gauteng.

2. Can I plant this under my large trees?

Absolutely. This variety has excellent semi-shade tolerance. As long as the area receives at least 4 hours of filtered or direct sunlight, it will maintain its density and colour far better than sun-dependent varieties.

3. How much water does it actually need?

To keep this grass looking its best, you should aim for approximately 25mm of water per week consistently. In the heat of summer, you may need to increase this slightly, while in winter, you can stick to the 25mm mark to compensate for the dry Gauteng air.

4. Is it a “creeping” grass?

No. It is a tufted grass variety. This is a massive benefit for homeowners with intricate landscaping, as the grass will stay exactly where you plant it rather than “crawling” into your stone-work or garden sleepers.

5. Can it handle heavy traffic and dogs?

It handles moderate foot traffic well. However, because it doesn’t “self-repair” as aggressively as Kikuyu via runners, it is best suited for residential gardens rather than high-impact sports fields or areas with very large, active dogs.
