The perfect family lawn needs to be a special kind of multitasker. It has to be tough enough to handle everything from backyard cricket to the family dog, yet soft and gentle enough for bare feet and toddlers’ knees. For years, North Shore families have turned to Soft Leaf Buffalo to get this ideal balance.
As the modern evolution of classic Buffalo, Soft Leaf varieties were specifically cultivated to remove the scratchy, coarse texture of older grasses. The result is a lawn that offers the legendary durability and low-maintenance appeal of Buffalo, but with a kinder, more inviting feel that truly makes your garden an extension of your home.

This transforms your backyard experience. It becomes a worry-free zone where toddlers can crawl without irritation, kids can play and tumble comfortably, and you can relax with a book, feeling the soft grass beneath you. By combining this premium feel with low-allergenic properties, Soft Leaf Buffalo creates a safer, more enjoyable outdoor space for everyone.
Don’t let the “soft” name fool you; this turf is incredibly tough. It carries the full genetic strength of its Buffalo heritage, meaning it’s built to withstand the realities of an active suburban life. Its robust root system and dense, running growth habit allow it to handle constant use and bounce back beautifully.
Furthermore, its excellent shade tolerance makes it the ideal solution for the classic North Shore garden. Whether your yard has large, established trees casting dappled light or areas shaded by the house, this grass will maintain its health and density.
