Plants are grown on a “blanket” and harvested like sod. TerraExt provides excellent instant green with 85% foliar coverage upon installation. This system is designed to help reduce water evaporation, soil erosion and weed growth. The growing medium is contained by a filter fabric laid above the rest of the system’s under layers.
