not sure...
but i guess japanese pearl grass...
Rm8 / sqft... that was 2 years ago.

cody99, where you last see it? Sg Buloh?

i heard canadian grass is nice

Hi,........ where to buy this Canadian grass please ?

And also where to buy that japanese Pearl Grass ?

i am planning to plant carpet grass for my home. The thing is some area will be covered by shades and i'm afraid will have limited sunlight. Which type of grass is suitable?

its all depends on the sunlight,water n receive n soil..n maintenance of it plus $$..anyway...do ask around...cowgrass is the cheapest...easier to maintain..smell grassy...

that correct.. don't think that maintenance of grass is cheap..

i just completed mine yesterday.. 200 sqft area.. Philippine Grass a.k.a karpet.. Rm.1.4 2 ft x 1xt

now, have to shower the grass every morning and evening, fertilizer, check on pesticide etc..

cow grass is the easiet one to maintenance..

I have about 4000 sf of pearl grass in my garden. They usually grow well under semi-shade, but leaves are longer and bigger for those area with minimal sun. They require a LOT of water to keep them from having 'burned' look. You need extensive daily watering during the dry season. Weeding is needed once a week once the garden is fully covered.

can find sg buluh..they selling rm1 for 2 ftx 1ft...

plan to buy it end og this month..but still need to survey the maintenance, soil and etc.....

go go go green earth mate...

feel good doing it urself right?


so philippine grass is not a good choice eyh?

wow..that's cheap..here rm2.50 for 2ft x 1ft .. how bout price for sand?


my wife wanted to cover with tiles, but i prefer grass, more countryside feeling

Philipine grass stays short so less maintanance/trimming needed and more resilient...

I never tried philipine grass. I was recommended pearl grass by the nursery. Cost me something like RM5 for 1x3 ft 11 years ago. Probably cheaper now.

Not very green as in not very environmentally friendly as lawn needs a lot of water. Better to plant trees and shrubs.. less maintenace

it took me one year to kickoff this project..

u need to clean all the lalang and rumput before laying this new grass..

for soil.. there are few type.. for sand, it will cost u rm1 per pack..i think less then a 5kg per pack..

usually.. if u buy at sungai buloh near RRIM, the price usually at RM2 per 2 sgft.. (2ft x 1ft)

but if u go to sungai buloh hospital area.. some of them selling at RM 1.5-RM1.7 per s sq/ft..

some of them selling one ONE sq ft at price of RM 0.90..

unless u really buy in bulk . u minght get further discount..

transportation required (lorry)..

finally i choose philippines grass..

hye......i was wondering...is it okay to combine the grass types........

im also surveying for carpet grass.......want to cover about 1000sqf hope RM2k is enough
