California Buffalograss Installation in Fullerton, CA!
Posted in Lawn Pics!, Testimonials on May 11, 2012| 3 Comments »
Week 1: Installation/First week of March 2012
Week 7: Filling in nicely!
A special thanks to Jerome Lew for sharing these pics from a recent green home project he has been working on! In his experience, he found that the plugs that were heavily doused in the Zeba Root Dip seemed to establish much faster. And he says “the homeowners are very happy”!
It all looks great, we can’t wait to see more! Thanks Jerome!
Itchy feet no more with California Buffalograss!
Posted in Randomness, Testimonials on October 14, 2010| Leave a Comment »
We recently had someone come by to purchase some California Buffalograss for his home. He had just moved into his new house and he complained that he was very allergic to his lawn. As soon as he stepped onto it, his feet would rash up! He had heard about the low allergy benefits of California Buffalograss and thought he’d give it shot. He even walked out bare footed onto our test patches out here at our nursery and his feet had no reaction!
This is more of an extreme case of allergies, but since California Buffalograss produces hardly any seed heads it’s much better for those with the regular sort of sneezy wheezy allergies too!
UC Davis Sustainable Water and Landscaping
Posted in Save Water, Testimonials on September 29, 2010| Leave a Comment »
UC Davis is committed to fostering sustainable places that…includes the outdoor campus landscape, gateways to the Davis community and a network of natural reserves elsewhere in California that UC Davis manages.
Discovering and demonstrating new ways to manage water efficiently not only saves campus oerating costs, but serves as a model for a water-strapped state.
California Buffalograss, developed by scientists at UC Davis and UC Riverside, is literally adding more green to campus in an efficient way.
California Buffalograss grass needs only about 25 percent the amount of water used for other turf grasses. The grass was included in the landscaping of the new Maurice J. Gallagher Hall, home to the UC Davis Graduate School of Management, in part to meet the Gold-level certification by the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Environmental and Energy Design (LEED).
In addition to being water-efficient, California Buffalograss is also extremely tough and dense with strong disease and insect resistance, which reduces the need for chemical applications, weeding or other maintenance. Because the grass variety grows very slowly in comparison to other varieties, it also needs to be mowed far less frequently.

California Buffalograss in Sunset Magazine!
Posted in Lawn Pics!, Testimonials on June 28, 2010| Leave a Comment »
California Buffalograss was mentioned in the June 2010 issue of Sunset Magazine as a great low-water lawn alternative! We had sent them samples to try out last year through one of our brokers and here is what they have to say about it: “We grew it at Sunset and loved its soft feel and 6-inch height (if left unmowed)”.

Comment from Phoeniz, AZ gardener with California Buffalograss lawn
Posted in Testimonials on August 3, 2009| Leave a Comment »
“This is REAL triple digit weather … over 110 for most of the month. The lawn gets noticeably stressed by the last day before watering – slightly blue and footprints don’t spring back.
But I’m using 60% of the water it would take for an established Bermuda lawn, and mowing less than once a week. Unlike Bermuda, that turns scraggly when underwatered, the California Buffalograss just slows down it’s growth but stays reasonably green.”

“I am hard to impress, but … I’m impressed…3 to 4 months establishing the plugs is a minor investment of time compared to the saving water and mowing time I’m going to be enjoying next year.”
Positive customer review!

“I can’t believe we continue to plant grass (fescue) till I read about the benefits. Grasses to absorb carbon from our air and help moderate the tempertures around our homes. Plus they help keep the dust down as compared to having just dirt. I did some research and planted UC Verde and though it did take some time to established itself compared to sod the water and mowing savings in the future will more that offset the time. If we can save 50-75 % on water what impact would that have for California. After growing the grass and seeing how nice it looks once established I have no complaints. Except that it does go dormant during the winter for a few months. But with the future water challenges it’s a small sacrafice.”

The Lazy Gardener wrote to us:
“Because there is so little information on how this grass grows in Phoenix, I decided to make it part of my new gardening blog. If it thrives or dies, it’s going to happen, with pictures, on the internet. So far, it’s still alive and starting to spread.”
