This property in French’s Forest has a very steep back yard. This was a perfect situation for mulch blowing Frenchs Forest. The property owners wanted the area landscaped so there would be a minimum of work to be done this large garden area. While some terracing and planting had been done, there were many areas that needed weeding, planting and mulching.
The yard can been seen in the photo above with the existing and new plants, terraces and the large quantity of mulch blown onto the back yard. In all 20 cubic metres of Pine Bark Mini Nuggets mulch was needed to cover the large yard. The best way to bring this in to this steep site was to use the Blower Truck service. See the blowing in progress in the video below.
The initial part of the job was to clear any weeds, add some terraces using Treated Pine Sleepers, plant the plants to cover the yard and finally blow in the mulch.
The terraces were added to the steeper part of the yard to improve access and to provide areas to plant some of the plants.
Jute mesh holds the mulch on the hillside
Jute was used in steep parts of the yard. The jute helps to hold the hillside together, the mulch will sit in it better and not slide down the hill as easily. The plants and ground covers planted in the Jute also help to hold the hillside together and keep the mulch from sliding down.
Finally the mulch was blown into the back yard. the mulch used was Pine Bark Mini Nuggets.
When the plants grow they will provide a dense cover over the hillside. This will help to prevent future weed growth, The mulch also works like a blanket, holding moisture in which is helpful for the plants growth. The finished yard is now much easier to maintain and also looks good.
