Hydroseeding on the Mornington Peninsula

Sandy coast, hinterland acreage

Much of the Peninsula's coastline, from Rosebud to Rye, sits on sandy soil that drains quickly and dries out fast.

Inland, around Red Hill and Main Ridge, properties are larger and the soil is heavier.

What we recommend on the Peninsula

• Organic matter and a moisture-holding mulch on sandy soils
• Spraying holiday homes in autumn or early spring, ready for summer
• Per-m² pricing on hinterland acreage
• Tackifier for exposed coastal sites

Keeping sandy soil moist

Sandy Peninsula soil drains quickly, which is great in winter but tough on new seed in summer. We add organic matter during prep, use a mulch rate that holds moisture, and give you a watering plan with shorter, more frequent sessions for the first few weeks.
