hydroseeded

Spray-planted with mulch

Hydroseeded describes land that has been planted using hydroseeding—a process where seeds, mulch, fertilizer, and water are mixed into a slurry and sprayed over soil.

The technique covers large or difficult areas quickly: The highway embankments were hydroseeded to prevent erosion.

Common for lawns, roadside slopes, and reclaimed land.
