Plants to prevent erosion on steep Banks 
Steep slopes can be put into grass and mowed. But it is never 
easy and maintenance is constant work and worry. The following 
plants do the job better from a point of view of roots holding earth 
in place. There are almost no maintenance-problems. However, 
all are vigorous and spreading, and four are inclined to get out of 
hand: Hedera, Lonicera, Rose and Vinca. They can be rigorously 
pruned back without the least harm, however. 
Eventually one plant will cover a large area, but on banks it is 
important to get the soil held quickly. We suggest bad steeps be 
planted 18 inches apart each way—gentler slopes 2 feet, except 
as noted below. 
PACHYSANDRA terminalis

3 to each square foot.

hold and ornament a bad road embankment. 
This plant is extremely tolerant and will 
grow (though not so bushy) even in dense 
shade. The fragrance of a honeysuckle bank 
scents the air for hundreds of yards around.
