MIXTURES SUITABLE FOR AMENITY LANDSCAPES

In today’s highly competitive market place, it is becoming increasingly important that buyers are aware of quality and value for money.   The Masterline Landscape range has been produced with these important principles in mind. Cultivars are selected which will not only establish quickly and have good wear tolerance, but are also naturally low growing with high levels of disease resistance to ensure that future maintenance costs are kept to the minimum.
