Product Description
Delivered Next Working Day
Enviromat Sedum matting offers a beautiful roof covering ideal for pitched roofs. It attracts benefical insects and is great for the environment mainly from the Sedum family. Sedum is a hardy drought tolerant, frost hardy plant adding year round colour to your garden. Sedum flowers appear in summer and are nectar-rich. That means they are particularly attractive to butterflies, bees and other pollinating insects. In Winter the Sedum species keep their leaves which turn a lovely shade of cherry red. Using Sedum matting gives you all year round interest. Enviromat Sedum is a pre cultivated vegetation blanket on a patented nylon loop and geotextile base with substrate growing medium and sown in water retention fleece. This makes it ideal for use on a pitched roof. Enviromat Sedum can go for up to one month without watering, with no need for mowing or pruning. It prefers full sun or part shade and tolerates sea salt.
Optional extra - Green Roof Drainage Matting - Ideal to use on flat roofs to prevent the Sedum becoming water-logged.
Seed mix is predominantly sedums and saxifrage plants.
We sell our Enviromat sedum matting in several convenient packages of 6,12,18,or 24 square metres to all areas of UK mainland

Enviromat call be installed at any time of year and in any weather except frost and snow. You can walk on Enviromat, but only very occasionally. It certainly won’t stand up to a game of football or a garden party. If you are considering using Enviromat as groundcover, perhaps as an ornamental “lawn”, including stepping stones or a path in your design will help save wear and tear on the plants. All of the sedum species in Enviromat are frost hardy in the British Isles. Quite often frost will stimulate the leaves to take on an attractive burgundy red colour – another aspect to Enviromat’s all year round interest, and a white haw frost accentuates the different shapes, sizes and textures of the leaves and looks absolutely delightful. Sedums are totally non-toxic; in fact our ancestors often used sedums to make medicines. The leaves and stems of sedum plants taste bitter too, so there’s no need to worry about children or animals eating them, they’re just not appetising enough! Enviromat certainly seems to tolerate the salty air at the seaside and it doesn’t mind being in exposed situations so Enviromat sedum matting is suitable for a seaside garden.

Material Information
Enviromat Characteristics:
Sedum matting is a type of groundcover or green roofing that consists of a mat of pre-grown sedum plants. The sedum plants are grown in a thin layer of soil or other growing medium, which is then attached to a backing material like felt or mesh. The result is a roll of sedum matting that can be laid down on the ground or positioned onto a rooftop to create a low-maintenance and environmentally friendly cover.
Sedum matting is good to use in your garden for several reasons:
Low maintenance: Sedum matting requires minimal maintenance once it is established. The sedum plants are drought-tolerant and can survive in a wide range of soil types and conditions. This makes them an excellent choice for areas of the garden that are difficult to maintain, such as slopes or areas with poor soil quality. Similarly, when positioned on rooftops of sheds or garden buildings, they require very little aftercare.
Environmentally friendly: Sedum matting is a sustainable and environmentally friendly option for garden groundcovers and greenroofing. The sedum plants are native to many regions of the world and can attract pollinators like bees and butterflies.
Aesthetically pleasing: Sedum matting can add a unique and visually appealing element to garden design. The plants come in a wide range of colours and textures, and can be used to create interesting patterns or designs on the ground or make an attractive feature of your garden building roof. Expect to see yellow, white and pink flowers and foliage that is predominantly green when moist and red during drier periods.
Erosion control: Sedum matting can help control erosion on slopes and other areas of the garden where soil erosion is a problem. The plants can help stabilise the soil and prevent runoff.
Versatility: Sedum matting can be used in a variety of garden design styles, from modern and minimalist to more naturalistic or rustic designs.
Enviromat is a brand of sedum matting that may be installed at any time of year and in any weather except frost and snow. You can walk on Enviromat, but only very occasionally. It certainly won’t stand up to a game of football or tennis, but will withstand occasional gentle foot traffic. When using on a roof top, take note that the sedum may weigh up to 45kg per square metre when wet and as such, it may be necessary to add reinforcement to the roof. If laying on a flat roof, use drainage matting to draw any excess moisture away from the sedum tp prevent it becoming waterlogged.
Overall, sedum matting is a good option to use in your garden for its low maintenance, sustainability, aesthetic appeal, environmental benefits and versatility. It is an excellent choice for homeowners who want to create a beautiful and environmentally friendly garden with minimal upkeep.
