E16 - Embankment & Ground Cover

Steep embankment grass cover

  • Designed to give rapid, yet long lasting ground cover on steep embankments and areas of unstable or loose soil
  • Utilises deep-rooted and creeping species to stabilise and bind soil

 

 

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.

 

  • Formulated to be our best performing mixture for establishing steep banks
  • Rapid germination from 'nurse crop' annual ryegrass
  • Creeping and deep-rooted grasses for soil stabilisation
  • Very tolerant of harsh conditions
  • Available with white clover for impoverished soils - see E16-C Embankment and Ground Cover

 

AREAS OF USE

  • Steep banks
  • Areas of loose and unstable soils
  • Road verges

 

* A higher sowing rate is recommended when sowing on steep slopes.
