Century’s Slope Guards are designed for planting on steep slopes. Landscape professionals installing new plantings on steep slopes have traditionally been confronted with unique problems. Trees must be planted with care and attention to aeration, soil compaction and fertilization. Unfortunately, the water so vital for new plantings, also has the tendency to wash away the soft soil and fertilizer at the base of the tree and erode the bank above into the new planted area, smothering the new planting. Our Slope Guards retain hillside integrity, protecting new plantings while being cost-effective and easy to install, with self-interlocking connections.
