Stadium Couch Turf

Hard-wearing for high-profile sporting facilities.

7.50 AUD /m2

Looking for a manicured lawn for a high-profile sporting venue? We have the answer.

Stadium Couch Turf is a next-generation hybrid couch created specifically for sporting venues, and it delivers! Its dark green coloring and naturally manicured appearance make it an excellent choice for televised and live sports. Plus, it has a deep root system and aggressive recovery, so it stands up to even the most extreme events!

Even when conditions aren’t perfect, this grass was created to look good. The natural dark green color stays put in high and low temperatures and poor quality soils. It’s also resistant to most pests and tolerant of herbicides, so you’ll have no trouble with maintenance. If it does start to look drab, a little fertilizer will have it green and gorgeous again in no time.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Created to thrive in high-traffic, hard wear areas, such as professional sports stadiums, coastal park plantings, and other retail or commercial developments.
  • Dark green manicured appearance, even when conditions aren’t ideal.
  • New and improved hybrid species with quick recovery.

  • Stadium® Couch has very little seed head production which minimises mowing requirements.
  • Stadium® Couch has a manicured appearance – excellent for televised and live sports viewing.
  • Stadium® Couch has fast and aggressive runner growth and a very good dense stolon base for quick recovery from damage and wear.
  • Stadium® Couch has lower maintenance due to slower leaf growth and minimal seed head production.

PERFORMANCE

  • PURPOSE
    Bred exclusively to suit high or very high traffic and heavy wearing sporting venues.
  • ESTABLISHMENT
    Stadium® Couch establishes quickly with minimal water and fertiliser but is best installed when weather is not too cool.
  • MAINTENANCE
    Low
  • MOWING
    The grass scalps less than other Couch types, which allows for a reduction in mowing schedules.
  • RECOMMENDED MOWING HEIGHT
    Hot months: Every 7-10 days (depending on how manicured you want your lawn to look). Cold Months: Every 3-6 weeks. Mowing height will vary from 1–3cm.
  • WATER REQUIREMENTS
    Water thoroughly and regularly after the turf has been laid to encourage a deep and vigorous root system. Post establishment water thoroughly only when needed (when a slight wilting is visible), usually once every 7-10 days in summer (on sandy soils more often), with much less or no water in cooler months.
  • COLOUR
    Retains dark green natural colour in poorer quality soils or where nutrition is low
  • SEED HEAD
    Very little seed head production.
  • FERTILISER
    Once or twice a year. But is highly responsive to fertiliser which means a quick green-up when applied.
