NZLA Perennial Rye Lawn Seed
Available in-store only at Gardenmakers, 4 Parkhouse Rd.
NZLA Perennial Ryegrass seed is a hard-wearing, winter-active, and drought-tolerant turf. Establishing rapidly from sowing, this turf is capable of being mowed down to 15mm.
NZLA recommends applying Starter Fertiliser at the time of seeding to give your new lawn the essential nutrients it needs. There is a huge variation in results from those who use Starter Fertiliser and those who skip it. Your lawn will struggle without the correct nutrients to feed it during establishment. Starter Fertiliser can be reapplied after six weeks if you have some left. Alternatively, you can then switch to NZLA All Seasons.
Sowing rate of 3-5kg/100m2
Oversowing rate of 2.5-3.5kg/100m2

What herbicides can I use on my Perennial Ryegrass Lawn?
Use NZLA Etho to control some foreign grasses, such a Poa and Summer Grass. NZLA Meso to control some broadleaf weeds. Etho and Meso can both be used at seeding as a pre-emergent or as a post-emergent once the turf is 4 weeks old and has been mowed a couple of times. The best general turf herbicide is Triumph Gold, as it controls the largest amount of common lawn weeds.
