Pro Flora 13 - Species Rich Lawn & Landscape

With demand for improved biodiversity on all major landscape projects, increasing the species count in what can be the largest soft landscaped surface of the scheme can sometimes be overlooked.

Pro Flora 13 is suited to a varied management regime in terms of cutting height and frequency. This flexibility allows mowing every couple of weeks at 75-100mm in a more intensively managed area, right through to a conventionally managed, species rich, grassland receiving just one or two cuts a year. The greater amount of time between cuts, the greater the number of species will flower providing additional benefits to pollinating insects.
