What Is Landscaping Material?
Landscaping material encompasses all materials used in landscaping, including stone, bamboo, lumber, fertilizers, and other greening materials, tools, and maintenance supplies.
Stone materials in landscaping range from slabs, cobblestones, gravel, ground covers, shade stones, bricks, blocks, tiles, and roof tiles, to artificial stones and concrete products.
Bamboo is used for garden decoration, hedge components, and support materials, along with rope, string, and straw products.
Greening materials include artificial turf, weed prevention sheets, agricultural chemicals, fertilizers, compost, vitalizers, and various types of soil, such as lightweight soil, for garden maintenance and management.
Uses of Landscaping Materials
Landscaping materials are primarily used in gardens, but also for hedges and various types of supports like cross-trees and stakes. They play a key role in soil maintenance, including soil replacement and the use of weed control sheets as preliminary works in landscaping.
Weed control sheets, made mainly of synthetic fibers, prevent the roots of weeds like bamboo from invading gardens and other planted areas.
Soils in landscaping include soil conditioners and cultured soils mixed with organic materials, along with lightweight soils for rooftop gardens.
