More About Enviromat Sedum Matting

Enviromat sedum matting is grown in the UK using the xeroflor matting system.

Enviromat consists of three interactive layers that work together to create a living carpet:

  • The geotextile layer - a special fabric with a nylon loop knitted into it which supports the other two layers. The geotextile layer allows Enviromat to be rolled up for transportation and installation without the plants and the growing medium falling off.
  • The growing medium. 2.5cm of specially blended growing medium derived mainly from recycled brick and tile. Non organic - so it won't degrade on the roof, relatively light weight when compared to soil and well drained. Just how sedum plants like it.
  • The vegetative layer. A random mix of low-growing sedum species that are fully hardy in this country. These are low maintenance, drought tolerant plants that can survive the exposed conditions one finds on most roofs. If they're fed every spring, these plants will reward you with flowers for up to nine months of the year and fabulous foliage all year round.

Enviromat is ideal for low maintenance ground cover and is popular with local authorities, theme parks and gardeners because properly installed, it gives spectacular results with very little work - no mowing, no deadheading, no weeding.

Enviromat sedum matting is harvested to order and delivered by overnight couriers so that it is as fresh as possible when it arrives. Please install Enviromat within 8 hours of delivery.
