Why Choose Burnetts Lawn Seed?

Choosing burnetts lawn seed means investing in a well-established blend tailored for New Zealand lawns. The carefully selected grass varieties in burnetts mixes balance fine texture, colour, drought tolerance, and quick establishment. This makes burnetts lawn seed a popular go-to for home lawns, recreational grounds, and public spaces. By starting with quality seed, you’re giving your lawn the best chance for long-term health, uniform coverage, and easy maintenance throughout the year.

Find the Best Grass Seed for Your Conditions

Every lawn is unique, so pairing burnetts lawn seed with other speciality blends can help you tailor your results. If you desire a soft, low-maintenance lawn, consider the Fine Fescue Lawn Seed, known for its fine blades and shade tolerance. For high-wear areas, Amenity Ryegrass Seed (Lawn Seed) delivers robust growth and quick green-up, perfect for busy backyards and sports lawns.

Warm Northern climates or coastal properties might benefit from Kikuyu (Blended Kikuyu Lawn Seed), a sun-loving grass prized for its drought resistance and self-repairing nature. For those seeking a pure stand, Pure Kikuyu Seed is an excellent choice.

Fancy something a bit different? Add a soft aromatic touch to your lawn borders with Chamaemelum nobile (Chamomile), which can be used as a fragrant, flowering groundcover.

Tips for Establishing Your Burnetts Lawn

To get the best results with burnetts lawn seed, prepare your soil by removing weeds, rocks, and debris, and ensure you have a smooth, level seedbed. For optimum germination, sow seeds in autumn or spring when soil temperatures regularly exceed 10 degrees Celsius. Keep the seeded area moist, but not waterlogged, until the grass is well established.

Mow for the first time when your new lawn reaches about 7 cm tall, and always use sharp blades to avoid pulling up young plants. Regular feeding and watering, combined with proper mowing, help your burnetts lawn seed develop into a dense, resilient turf you’ll love for years.
