Hey, has anyone in Melbourne bought and laid Empire Zoysia turf?
We're looking to lay turf soon so that we can utilise our back yard instead of the kids/dog bringing in the dirt and dust constantly....
I've got a price of $10/sqm with a $77 delivery fee but was wondering if anyone else has bought it and if that price was pretty standard? I'm sure those in other states such as NSW would probably get it cheaper but would be interested in hearing from anyone in Melb who's laid turf recently?
I've been told its not too late to get the turf and lay it, but that particular turf does comes from Sydney hence the hefty delivery price.
Seed isnt an option for us atm, with a dog and 2 kids (who all prefer to walk on the dirt instead of the tuscan toppings path we've created!), i want it ready to use asap and cant wait 3 months for it to "take"
I suppose i can look at the standard fescues etc from Anco and even pick up if need be, as they are local to us, but i was specifically looking for the Empire Zoysia for its drought tolerant qualities...
Anyone??
