Transform your outdoor space with Starke Ayres Kikuyu Lawn Grass Seed 500g, one of the most popular lawn grass varieties for Kenya’s warm climate. Kikuyu grass is known for its vigorous growth, exceptional drought tolerance, and ability to recover rapidly from wear, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic lawns and recreational areas.

The grass produces a medium to coarse textured, light green lawn that spreads naturally by underground rhizomes and above-ground stolons, creating a dense carpet that suppresses weeds once established.

With germination occurring in as little as 1–2 weeks under ideal conditions, Kikuyu establishes quickly and provides excellent ground cover. It performs best in full sun and requires moderate maintenance, including regular mowing during the growing season.

Whether you’re establishing a new lawn or overseeding an existing one, Starke Ayres Kikuyu Seed offers reliable performance and long-lasting results.
