Default Seed mix for stabilising ditch bank.

"rbel" wrote in message ...
If grass is needed I would look for a seed mix with 30 to 50% amenity
ryegrass and 30% creeping fescue and would add a wetlands wildflower
seed mix to provide some interest. If it was my project I would just
use a wet wildflower seed mix.


Not necessarily grass, just after some plants that will root into the soil
and stop it subsiding.

Bostons have a sound range of grass seeds and a wetlands/pond edge
wildflower mix which may suit.

Thanks for that, they're local to me!
