The Top Trees for Sloped or Banked Properties
- Japanese maple: This smaller version of the classic maple tree thrives on slopes and provides purple, orange, red, green, or gold leaves.
- Blue point juniper: This small pyramid-shaped conifer with bluish needles grows up to 12 feet tall.
What method of planting trees is ideal for sloping areas?
A traditional Pacific Island practice that is very beneficial for growing tree crops on hillsides is to plant the tree rows across the slope instead of up and down the slope. A common name for this practice is contour farming. It is a very old and effective conservation practice used by farmers from around the world.
What is the best plant to plant on a slope?
Ornamental grasses, ground cover roses and shrubs (including shrub roses with a sprawling growth habit) work well in hillside and slope planting. Native plants are nearly always an excellent choice.
