There is a number of warm season grass varieties that require little watering, although TifTuf Bermuda grass is the only turf variety in Australia to receive the Smart Water stamp of approval for low water usage. Continue reading below to find out from the qualified experts at StrathAyr which types of grass require the least amount of watering, as well as how we can help you select the right type of turf for your home garden.
