Zusammenfassung:	A seed mat 100 has a ground facing layer 101 and a water insoluble fibrous layer 105 above the ground facing layer. The ground facing layer includes a water soluble substrate 102 containing seeds 103. The seed mat is placed on the ground and watered. The water soluble substrate 102 dissolves, depositing the seeds 103 on the ground. The water insoluble fibrous layer 105 acts as a mulch to prevent excessive water loss. A process for forming the mat is also disclosed in which the layers are bonded together and apertures created through the layers to allow penetration of the germinating seed.
