Default Sedum Matting

Morning all,

Can anyone suggest suppliers for (a very small amount of) Sedum Matting in
Essex?

I can only locate suppliers a fair distance away so my delivery is going to
be more than the actuall matting.

Thanks very much

Richard

What is 'sedum matting'?

A bed of absorbent matting to put over (say) the roof of a shed to seed
with sedum as a 'green' roof?

pretty much...but i would like matting with plants already established...

the "roof" is layed in three stages.

1) waterproof/plastic sheeting
2) water retention fleese
3) sedum matting - i am guessing this will be just some hessian type
material with the sedum plants established into it...

I'd try to find some well-worn Astroturf and make it dirtier, and plant
a few sedum bits here and there. It doesn't take long...
