Thanks for reading such a long article and then asking a question! Yes, the rubber is being used for aeration/anti compaction. The usual filler is sand, but the council are using recycled rubber instead. Now I'm not sure about this because over time there must be a chance that the hollow tining brings up rubber instead of soil. And it doesn't rot down either. I was wondering whether fine grit might be the solution instead if the usual sand isn't good for London's grass.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6234209863121615779.post-79459630992176413222009-10-05T21:50:03.824+02:002009-10-05T21:50:03.824+02:00I have freesias in the garden.
