A mix of low-growing species perfect for a small lawn area, giving a long season of colour and low height. Slow-growing grasses complement this mix, and it will grow best either onto a clean seedbed and rolled in or directly sown into existing grass in the Autumn or Spring, provided it's not going to dry out. If there is a danger of drought, the plants should be carefully watered.
