Steep Slope Native Mix
The Steep Slope Native Mix is specially formulated to stabilize slopes greater than 3:1, providing a reliable solution for erosion control in challenging landscapes. This blend includes a mix of warm and cool-season grasses with deep root systems that anchor the soil, preventing soil movement and erosion. Growing to heights between 24” and 60”, the plants form a diverse ground cover that not only stabilizes the slope but also adds texture, color, and habitat for wildlife. With an establishment period of 1-3 years, it creates a sustainable and resilient environment on steep terrains.
Perfect for a wide range of conditions, Steep Slope Native Mix adapts to various environments and creates a natural, robust ground cover. DLF's blends are tailored to suit the unique needs of each natural region across Canada, ensuring optimal results for reclamation projects. This blend, featuring species like Indiangrass, Little Bluestem, Virginia Wild Rye, and more, provides lasting slope protection while enhancing biodiversity and soil health.
