What it does

LAWNZ Resilience is a dual-action herbicide designed to help you win the battle against poa annua — one of the most stubborn and unwanted grass weeds in New Zealand lawns. Whether you’re establishing new turf or maintaining an existing one, Resilience helps suppress poa and a broad range of weed seedlings, creating a cleaner, healthier lawn.

Use it pre-emergent (just after sowing seed) or post-emergent (1–3x/year) for longer-term control.
