3. Grade and level out the area so that it is as straight as possible.
4. Use a high nutrient premium soil and make sure you have 4 to 6 inches for optimal root growth.
5. Add a fertilizer for maximum root growth.
6.  Rake the area to make it smooth and level.

Installation

1. Lay the first row against the sidewalk or driveway which will make you start against a straight line.
