How did it come about?
Zoysia Australis was bred by Dr. Brian Schwartz at the prestigious University of Georgia, Tifton Campus, known for its world-leading turfgrass research.
Dr. Schwartz, the scientist behind the successful TifTuf Hybrid Bermuda, introduced Zoysia Australis to Australia in 2018.
After extensive trials in diverse conditions, this variety was selected for commercial release due to its outstanding performance and unique qualities.
Proven Performance
In a recent independent trial by the Sports Turf Research Institute (STRI) titled “Screening New Zoysia Turfgrasses under Australian Conditions,” Zoysia Australis (cultivar ZJ-19-017) was recognized for its rapid establishment, achieving 95% coverage in the first 12 months!

When we decided to finally do our lawn, we went to Cobbity Turf, as an accredited lawn supplier and visited the farm to have a look at different lawns. We finally decided for Sir Grange, which after only 1 1/2 month after planting was simply sensational. We were very pleased with all the process since the beginning up the laying as we received all the information needed to have a great result.
This place is the go to if you need lawn. The gentleman that helped me choose my lawn and shared his expertise and how to lay the new lawn was great. Will definitely be buying more lawn from Cobbitty lawn in the future. Thank you.
Great service and great turf
I have a serious problem with my lawn - weeds and erosion - and wasn't having much luck finding anyone willing to give me a quote for a revamp. I went to see the people at Cobbitty Turf and not only did they give me their time but also expert advice on how to approach the problem, and which products to use. I am very grateful.

Always helpful and knowledgeable. Had a tour last time of the various types available that was not asked for but offered, it’s like they want you to be sure in your choice of variety as there was no rush and they took the time to take me to all the types on offer.
Today I needed some turf for a patch 12m2 only and Kerry emailed me within 5mins of my enquiry, took an order and got it cut the same day. Picked it up same day and the professional that cut it, cut me an extra because m2 because there was a dead spot on the first cut that was so small you wouldn’t even notice. He helped me hand load it onto the Ute.
Wouldn’t even think of getting turf anywhere else!

We were a bit daunted by what turf is best for us and which turf supplier to choose. Cobbity made the whole process super easy. We wanted to install our Sit Walter DNA turf ourselves. The Cobbity team ensured we were supported with all the right advice and preparation. Highly recommend.
