Description
Vulcanic Lava for mulching and decorations Fleur du Soleil. A natural mineral of volcanic origin that, thanks to its chemical composition and physical structure, is particularly suitable for mulching areas with steep slopes and prone to erosion, in addition to being very durable and resistant over time and unaffected by heavy rainfall.
Its distinctive red coloration ensures a high aesthetic and decorative value, allowing for creative color combinations in gardens - even rocky ones - and flower beds when alternated with other decorative aggregates such as Bark and Pumice Fleur du Soleil, preventing the growth of weeds.
Decorative:
The Vulcanic Lava Fleur du Soleil is the ultimate decorative material for borders, flower beds, paths, and gardens due to its unique red color that guarantees high aesthetic value, enabling the creation of imaginative color combinations in gardens and flower beds when alternated with other decorative aggregates such as French Maritime Pine Bark.
Mulching:
The Vulcanic Lava Fleur du Soleil, a natural and completely eco-friendly product, is used as a mulch to control the growth of weeds and to prevent moisture evaporation from the soil.
The lava provides effective thermal insulation, protecting the soil and plant roots from temperature fluctuations such as frost in winter and excessive sunlight in summer.
Due to its physical characteristics and grain size, it is particularly suitable for mulching on sloped and erosion-prone soils, in addition to being very durable and resistant over time, even to the damage caused by heavy rains.
Usage Tips:
1. For decoration, spread 2-4 cm of Vulcanic Lava Fleur du Soleil on the surface of flower beds, borders, and gardens;
2. For drainage, it is recommended to distribute an adequate layer of lava as a substrate for the soil of lawns;
3. To improve the structure, aeration, and stability of universal potting soils intended for large pots and gardens, it is recommended to mix the lava directly into the substrate at 6-8%.
