The picture is not an artificial lawn but Dichondra. Just do a Google search and you will see.

Actually i will try and post some pics by Sunday. It looks and behaves much much better in the shade than in the place that gets full sunshine.

Here is my garden.

rich1068 · 06-24-2012, 05:31 AM

Can you mow stripes into it?

spandeli · 06-24-2012, 05:39 AM

I dont think you can do that. I actually never used a mower

You've got a garden made of watercress. I'd rather go fake to be honest.

rich1068 · 06-25-2012, 09:36 AM

Harsh. But fair.

You could always add some egg mayo,it goes OK with watercress

What you need OP, is some kiln dried sand on that, to assist drainage.

Sorry . My comment was directed at Hotcoupe, because of his obsession with kiln dried sand.

Opps. So it is OP, I mean Fandiggly, I mean Carlos.

Haha.

All I want to know is can I lay turf over my patchy gritty current lawn and will it be ok?

I would have thought if you just lay new turf on top. It wouldn't knit into the existing soil and at the very least you will need to scalp the old lawn and score the soil before laying new turf down.

I used the artificial grass to beautify my landscape and I've never regretted it.
