MORE INFO & PRICING
Kenda (Pennisetum clandestinum ‘KIK203’) is a fast establishing form of kikuyu turf. Kenda has excellent wear tolerance and is the fastest recovery turf available, making it the perfect choice for active kids and energetic dogs. It is winter active, meaning in most parts of Western Australia you can have a dark green lawn all year round. Kenda was bred to be predominantly male sterile, meaning it is less likely to produce seed, therefore better for allergy sufferers. Compared to other kikuyu, Kenda has four times as many rhizomes, and more vigorous stolons making it a great choice for commercial use.
