| Thanks Mrs D!
You know how you search for something here in CH for years with no luck... and then suddenly it's everywhere? 
Today's Coop Zeitung has 'Rollrasen' (I'd never have come up with that on my own  ) on special, CHF 19.90 per meter instead of CHF 27 at the Bau and Hobby. It's only a small area, and I can certainly lay it myself... so maybe I'll treat myself.
It would be nice to have some grass growing on the slope before mud season (as spring is known on the dark side of the Rossberg  ) starts up. | |

I inquired as well at Coop Bau and Hobby about the special. It is on until April 25. Delivery to your home is included in the price, but no installation. But the minimum order is 40 m2 ! Right now it is too cold to lay it. Ideal temperature is a minimum 15 degrees I was told. It also needs a lot of water. I haven't even turned my outside taps back on! I asked at Coop who the supplier was-either the link I gave earlier
www.ericschweizer.ch
or Hauenstein
http://www.hauenstein.ch/Hauenstein/...rtigrasen.aspx
In the latter link there is quite a lot of information under "fertigrasen", certainly more than they were able to tell me at Coop. Looking at the photos I am not so sure it is a DIY job unless my rolling pin from the kitchen can be used.
I think I might just go with seed....
