E16-C Embankment & Ground Cover with Clover/Biodiverse
Added clover to steep embankments
-
E16-C mixture has the added benefit of small leaf white clover
-
White clover fixes nitrogen, making this the best choice for very thin, impoverished soils
-
Creeping and deep-rooted grass species to stabilise and bind soil
Our E16-C mixture is enhanced with small leaved white clover to provide a supply of nutrients for the neighbouring grass plants. The mixture will give rapid germination due to the inclusion of annual ryegrass which will act as a ‘nurse crop’, giving protection to the other species whilst they establish. The mixture includes a combination of deep-rooted, creeping, drought tolerant and hardwearing species to create an incredibly hardy mixture.
- Available without white clover - see E16 Embankment and Ground Cover
