The Enviromat green roof kit contains: Polyethene root barrier to protect your waterproofing against damage from roots and boots. Drainage matting (flat green roof kits only): sedum plants prefer well drained growing medium. Drainage mat ensures that excess rainwater is directed away from the plant’s roots. Water retention matting. A fleecy blanket, specially engineered to hold 9 litres of water per square metre. Water retention fleece is essential to support the plants through periods of drought and is far less weighty than the alternative of using a deep layer of growing medium. Enviromat sedum matting in 1m x 2m rolls. These can be heavy so make sure there are two of you to lift it. Enviromat is a blanket of low growing sedum plants with at least 95% plant coverage. Seven species of sedum plants are seeded in a random fashion into the mats and then grown on for at least 12 months to create a wonderful mix ever changing textures, colours and floral displays. Enviromat contains all the growing medium needed to sustain sedum plants held securely in place by a strong, non-degradable mesh that is unique to our brand.
