Tropika
Blue Couch
Tropika is one of our best sellers for home lawns, with an attractive blue-green wide leaf appearance. It is similar to Queensland Blue Couch but has a stronger, deep rooted, denser coverage giving it superior hardiness.
Tropika is best suited to coastal areas in sand profiles, but can also survive well in full sun on clay soils preferably with good drainage. When established Tropika forms a thick cover making it resistant to weed invasion.
One of the best attributes of the Tropika is that it keeps its deep green appearance for longer, surviving on lower water and fertilizer inputs than green couch. It is slightly less wear-tolerant than green couch, but wears and recovers better than common blue couch.
