Irrigation system |
I have used leaky pipe as an irrigation system in gardens for the last 12 years. It is very easy to install and cheap to run. Remember to have a pressure reducer straight after the water tap to make sure that your mains water pressure does not cause ruptures in the leaky pipe. It produces drips of water instead of a spring, flood or spray, thus the water flow is low and can be absorbed by the plant roots rather than drain to the subsoil below the topsoil. A battery powered timer to switch the water flow on and off reduces the moments when you forget to water your plants!! |

Instant hedging |
Instant security for the perimeter area using a Mobilane Green Screen. Children or pets cannot get out and others will find it difficult to get in. Will not exceed 2m in height unless extensions are used. Meets planning regulations for evergreen perimeter hedging.
Instant privacy which improves with time. After one growing season with the correct watering and feeding no elements of the screen can be seen. The Mobilane® ‘Green Screen’ is a living fence, consisting of a 5mm weld mesh galvanised steel security fence covered with plants. The plants are grown in a biodegradable pot, which is fitted at the bottom of the metal fence. Once the ‘Green Screen’ is installed the pot will degrade completely in the soil. The ‘Green Screen’ is available in different sizes and with plants including Ivy, Beech and Hornbeam and can be cut to fit by using a bolt cutter. |

Aspen is a Swedish made super clean alkylate petrol removing the user health hazard ingredients in normal pump fuel (which include carcinogenic benzene and others affecting the nervous and respiratory systems) .The product is inert, can be stored in and out of machines for several years without degrading and extends machine life up to 30%. Reduces formation of acid rain and gives a huge reduction in ground ozone. Main product is a pre mixed two stroke petrol (with 2% biodegradable synthetic oil) but straight four stroke and the 2 stroke oil available separately. |
