Hydroseeding in Mickleham

Open grassland country

Mickleham is one of the newest parts of Melbourne's northern growth corridor, built on open basalt grassland north of Craigieburn.

Yards often hide rock just below the surface, and the open ground catches both frost in winter and hot northerly winds in summer.

What we recommend for Mickleham yards

• Rock removal and ripping before topsoil
• A hard-wearing, frost-hardy blend
• Tackifier to hold seed against the northerly wind
• Front and back yards together to meet estate timelines

Meeting your estate's deadline

Most of Mickleham's newer estates ask for front landscaping within a set time after you move in. A hydroseeded front yard is green within about two weeks of spraying and costs far less than turf, so it's a practical way to meet the requirement. Send us your estate guidelines and we'll plan the timing.
