Grass on water logged garden
Hi
I have a garden of 2 types, the top is fantastic - good top soil and well drained. The bottom is solid clay with about 4" of topsoil on it. I seeded last year and on the top have some lovely ornamental grass. However, the bottom is a mud bath, not surprising really, it develops 10' by 4' puddles that take about a week to drain. The grass did take initially, but unfortunately it tears up really easily under foot. I have improved the drainage on the bottom by digging a sump and pumping away the excess water, but although there is no standing water now, it still gets saturated. Can anyone recommend a grass mix for these wet conditions, that may survive and even flourish in these type of conditions? thanks Andy |
