About Wintergreen couch

Looking for a beautiful lawn that thrives in full sun? We have the answer.

Wintergreen Turf Couch is the most popular green couch sold in Australia, and we agree! Its soft, fine leaf gives you a beautiful lawn even in sun-baked areas. If you’ve ever wondered how council parks, housing estates, and golf courses keep such gorgeously green lawns, now you know!

This grass thrives in sunny areas, needing at least 7 hours of sun each day. To keep this lawn looking impeccable, you’ll need to give it a little love regularly. Routine mowing and once-per-season fertilising keep it looking its best. It may also need aerating and top dressing to freshen it up in the spring. Do this, and you’ll be rewarded with a sun- and drought-tolerant turf with a beautiful deep colour that is sure to impress.

Highlights

  • Beautiful lawn that’s perfect for frequently-used areas with no shade – such as sporting surfaces, large yards, and commercial landscapes
  • Highly tolerant to chemicals and herbicides, so you don’t have to worry about damage from other lawn and garden care products
  • Economical price makes it a perfect choice for the large, open areas it thrives in

Wintergreen couch turf FAQs

How much is Wintergreen couch per m²?

Wintergreen couch turf is $7.00 per m², the lowest price of our three varieties. For example, 50 m² of Wintergreen is $350 for the turf. The turf calculator adds delivery and laying so you can see a full price before you order.

Is “winter green couch” the same as Wintergreen couch?

Yes. It is another way of spelling Wintergreen couch, the couch variety we cut to order at our Woodford farm.

Where is your Wintergreen grown?

We grow it ourselves on our turf farm at Woodford QLD 4514 and cut it to order, so the Wintergreen you receive comes from our own paddocks.

Do you deliver Wintergreen turf to Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast?

Yes. We deliver Wintergreen from the farm at Woodford across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. See turf supplies Brisbane or turf supplies Sunshine Coast for your area.

Is Wintergreen couch a good budget turf?

Yes. At $7.00/m² it is our most affordable turf, less than half the price per m² of Sir Walter or Empire Zoysia ($15.50/m²), which is why it suits large, open, sunny areas.

Couch or kikuyu: which is better for a Queensland lawn?

They are different grasses with different upkeep. We grow Wintergreen couch, not kikuyu. Our guide Couch vs kikuyu for Queensland lawns compares the two for Queensland yards.

Can I grow Wintergreen couch from seed?

We supply Wintergreen as turf. Couch seed in shops is common couch (Cynodon dactylon), not the Wintergreen variety. More in our seed vs turf guide.

How do I look after new Wintergreen turf?

Keep it well watered until it has rooted in, then start mowing once the turf can no longer be lifted. Follow our watering schedule for new turf (first 4 weeks) and our guide on when to mow new turf (and how low).

Is Wintergreen couch drought tolerant?

Wintergreen is a sun- and drought-tolerant couch once established, but new turf must be kept moist until it roots in. Our drought-tolerant turf guide compares Wintergreen, Sir Walter and Empire Zoysia for Brisbane conditions.

Compare with Sir Walter buffalo turf ($15.50/m²) and Empire Zoysia turf ($15.50/m²), or see all turf varieties.
