  Is kikuyu frost and drought resistant/ tolerant?

  •

    Yes.
    Kikuyu is frost tolerant. It can handle several mild frosts a season. It may brown off a little if it endures more frequent frosts, but recovers quickly in Spring.
    Being a warm climate variety is also very drought tolerant.

    Gotta say, while Kikuyu isn't as posh as other grasses I've loved the fact on many occasion I can treat it like crap and it comes back no probs. I water maybe once a year. I've had colorbond roofing delivered on it and by the time I've got to it (day or so) the heat of summer under it made a massive part of my grass dead. Roofing moved and a 3 or so days later it's back like there was nothing wrong. It's the lazy mans grass & that works for me (so long as you don't mind mowing twice a month in summer and once a month in winter). I live in Sydney to give climate perspective.

      needs mowing a lot more often than other varieties so I wouldn't call it a lazy man's grass.

  $13 cheaper for a larger quantity, 1.2kg for $55.88 at Bunnings:

  Sorry OP, no deal.

    As I stated.

    No WETTING AGENT or other CHEAP FILLERS that these supposedly 100% PURE products contain…

    Read the label

    '100% Pure Kikuyu Seed, Mixed with Organic Wetting Agent'

    Get what you pay for…

    How they get away with it, I'll never know…

      100% of the seed in Kikuyu, that's about it.

      • 

        AssociatedMcKays Grass Seed @ McKays Grass Seeds on 05/03/2017 - 21:20

        Correct.

        Big difference.

    • 

      Russ on 05/03/2017 - 21:20

      Oops, you are correct. For the same area sowed, you are slightly cheaper. Your 1kg will do 100 square meters, the one at Bunnings would need 1.33 bags, costing $74.51. Throwing in free delivery definitely throws it in you favour. Sorry!

        AssociatedMcKays Grass Seed @ McKays Grass Seeds on 05/03/2017 - 21:22

        No drama Russ.
        Its a common (and no doubt intentional) misconception.

        Certainly wouldn't recommend paying $55.88 / KG for wetting agent though :-)

  Won't be long now before a mod comes along and collapses our words out from under us for being off-topic.

  But OP I wanted to ask - what time tomorrow does this deal end?

    As far as I'm aware, Ebay don't actually specify when these codes expire.

  StevieRay on 05/03/2017 - 23:39

  How long will the seeds last in packaging / does it have an expiry date / when must they be sown by?

  Was hoping to use half on my lawn and the rest as personal backup incase a comet hits Svalbard.

  • 

    AssociatedMcKays Grass Seed @ McKays Grass Seeds on 06/03/2017 - 07:05

    Seeds should comfortably last 6-12 months is stored in cool and dry conditions.
    In reality, they will actually last longer but germination rates will slowly deteriorate after that.
