Santa Ana Couch needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. It will thin out or struggle in shaded areas, so avoid planting under trees or next to high fences without sun access.

Santa Ana requires a bit more attention to stay in top shape — but it rewards you with a stunning finish. For best results:

Mow regularly (low and often)
Fertilise seasonally – especially in early spring and late summer
De-thatch as needed to prevent build-up and keep the lawn breathing
Water deeply but infrequently to encourage root depth and drought resilience
