Ah, the middle child of lawn maintenance - Sapphire Buffalo Grass! With this grass, you'll need to give it some attention and care, but it won't demand all of your time and energy. It's like having a pet that's not a goldfish, but also not a high-maintenance pooch that needs constant walks and attention.
It’s got incredible shade tolerance, only requiring 2 hours of sunlight per day, so it’s really well suited to yards with lots of trees.
It is a faster grower, so will need mowing once per week in the hotter months, as well as a weekly soaking.
Being a Buffalo it’s highly durable and is a great grass for families with high traffic areas in their yard.
And its broad green leaf has a nice sapphire tinge, making it look more expensive than it is.
