PRESS RELEASE
Q Lawns have published a step by step guide to creating a green roof using Enviromat Sedum Matting. This handy A4 sized guide lists the materials needed to bring life to flat and gently sloping roofs on sheds, home offices, bird tables, rabbit hutches, log stores or any other garden structure large or small. The instructions can also be adapted for using Enviromat on hard surfaces such as man-hole covers.
Enviromat sedum matting is a simple way to bring colour and life to a garden. It consists of three, fully integrated layers: A geotextile with knitted loops which holds everything in place; a growing medium created from recycled building materials and specially formulated for growing sedum plants; and the vegetative layer – a random mixture of seven different low growing sedum species specially chosen for hardiness in challenging conditions.
Enviromat Sedum Matting comes with 95% plant coverage and once established, needs very little maintenance making it ideal for use on roofs, banks and hard to reach areas of the garden.
The installation guide and more details about Enviromat are available from Q Lawns, tel 01842 828266 or online at www.enviromat.co.uk
