My palmetto buffalo always looks awful in winter. Dry, turns yellow and has winter weed in a few spots. Is there nything I can do to quickly green it up during winter? I’m based on the Gold Coast, so it doesn’t get frost or anything.

Hi u/Codchops81, the best thing for the lawn will be some warmer weather. If you are looking to help keep the grass healthy throughout winter, the best thing to do is get the lawn at its healthiest throughout autumn. If you are just looking for a quick green up now, I would recommend using a lawn pigment like ColourGuard Plus, alternatively, wait a few more weeks till temperatures are warmer and apply a fertiliser like our Lawn Solutions Premium Fertiliser when the grass is actively growing.
