Sir Walter has stood the test of time because it performs where other lawns struggle. It grows:
Its broad, soft leaves allow it to photosynthesise efficiently, making it one of the best-performing buffalo varieties for shaded areas. At the same time, its deep root system reaches into the subsoil to access moisture, helping it stay greener for longer during dry periods.
A well-established Sir Walter lawn can even help reduce surrounding surface temperatures by up to 10 degrees.
Sir Walter was bred to be hardy – but also comfortable.
It features a soft leaf blade that makes it ideal for families, children and pets. Unlike older buffalo varieties, it won’t leave you with scratched legs after backyard cricket or footy.
Sir Walter is:
It’s the perfect lawn for active Aussie backyards.
One of the key reasons Sir Walter remains Australia’s most popular buffalo grass is its ability to handle both shade and drought.
Its strong, deep root system gathers moisture from below the surface, helping it stay healthy through long, hot summers. At the same time, its broad leaf structure allows it to perform exceptionally well in shaded areas where many other lawns thin out.
If you want a lawn that stays greener through summer and copes with less-than-perfect light, Sir Walter is a proven performer.
Sir Walter Buffalo has a tight, dense growth habit that naturally suppresses many weeds. Its vigorous lateral growth also allows it to repair quickly if damaged, reducing bare patches.
You’ll enjoy:
