Sedum Mats for Green Roofs and Groundcover
Kawasaki has sedum for green roofs!
Whether you’re an architect of a large green roof project or a homeowner with big ideas for small spaces, sedum can work virtually anywhere you can think to put it! Our sedum mats and sedum blankets offer an instant cover of full-grown vegetation. Therefore, very little maintenance and very little weeding is required. Similar to succulents, sedum does not need much water or soil to survive. Varieties used are perennial and cold hardy. As a result, your customers will enjoy year-round beauty, with an extra burst of seasonal color and bonus blooms. Sedum mats can be cut and shaped with a regular pair of scissors, allowing it to fit into any design! Sedum for green roofs, the landscape or your next creative project; it’s your choice!
