How does it hold down?
Mine is over a very Stoney, dirty cement floor and constantly moves.
I need advice how to keep it in place?
Any special tape? Etc

We had a handyman cut it to size and he also used special heavy duty glue and it does not move at all.

To do it properly, I've heard you need a layer of special pebbles to even out the bumps.

I don't think such a grass carpet is a good idea.
The best way of dealing with your problem: remove the grass carpet..

Second best option for dealing with it:
Clean the surface thouroughly before installing the carpet... Especially: remove stones and fill up holes, so that the carpet will rest on an even surface... Elementary, my dear Watson!

Yes, and after you do what turquoise said, there is a special outdoor two sided tape for intalling it.
Taped with 4 opposing strips (like an asterisk) and then around the perimeter. Works great, but must be on smooth, even surface.

Be careful with carpet o an outdoor porch as it retains moisture and so can degrade the surface below. Many condos prohibit because of the structural damage they cause.
