Growth Properties of Arboreous Plants on Artificial Bed Soil

Utilization studies of revegetation in steep slope using artificial bed soil with continuous fibers

Abstract

Property of artificial bed soil with continuous fibers which is sprayed on steep slope and growth of arboreous plants planted there were discussed. Growth of arboreous plants planted by seeding were well, and height reached about 2m for 4 years. Root system of arboreous plants grew not only artificial bed soil but also into cracks in rock and weathered rock, as it shows excellence compared to herbaceous plants even if dry period. Additionally, the results indicated. that the revegetation bed soil plays significant role during initial growth stage and moisture condition for plants standing on slope was better at lower part of it, which results in better growth of arboreous plants there.
