Searles Kikuyu Lawn Seed contains annual ryegrass as a ‘nursery’ grass for quick germination to limit weed competition and soil erosion. This provides an ideal situation for the kikuyu seed to germinate and flourish. Kikuyu tolerates clay, sandy and dry conditions and will also self-repair after any damage. The annual ryegrass will dye out after the first year leaving a thick and luscious kikuyu lawn.
