McKays Green/ Bermuda Couch blend is a combination of annual ryegrass, Sahara couch and fertiliser. In this blend, the Annual ryegrass provides a safety bed which protects and nurtures the growth of Sahara couch. The annual ryegrass will eventually die off after 12 months (usually due to warmer weather) allowing the Sahara’s aggressive runners to take over and fill out the old areas.

For best results, plant in a climate that ranges between 18-25 degrees Celsius, and fertilize at least a couple times a year with McKays Slow Release Fertiliser. If your are living in parts of Australia where the temperate regularly exceeds 25 degrees, we recommend going with the Pure Sahara Couch as the Annual Rye will not survive long in temperatures over 30 Degrees.
