Ways to Create a Successful Raised Garden on The Slopes
The land sloping from the street to the back of your house is the perfect place for a garden. This is the place where people often put their gardens, but this is not always a good idea. If you live in areas that experience snow or heavy rainfall, planting in raised garden on a slope can be a challenge.
Hillsides are not just any old garden bed. You can transform a hillside into an exciting landscape for your garden, with a combination of functional and creative planting.
Hills have a sense of drama and drama can help you add interest to your garden. Some of the most beautiful gardens use hills, so they are an attractive option for smaller gardens. The main advantage of landscaping a hillside is that it allows you to design with fewer plants. They won’t get lost in the space, if you create depth with your planting.
Also, if your landscaping budget is limited, consider using a ground cover, which will allow you to put a green carpet on the slope. Join a garden on the hill by choosing hillside flowers and vegetation that like to grow in the crags and crevices or on the slopes, such as sestala, rock cress, creeping phlox and sweet aloe vera.

Here are some tips on how to use them.
Keep the sloping garden
A retaining wall is a way to keep soil from being washed away on a slope. Soil erosion is bound to happen, water and gravity do the dirty work. But you can add wood, rock, or concrete blocks to make retaining walls to hold the soil in place. You can also stagger retaining walls to create tiered gardens on the slopes.
If your steep slope is more than 50% or 45 degrees, consider installing a retaining wall. When installing any retaining wall, add a good drainage system behind the wall to prevent cracking or collapse.
1. Terraced hillside garden
A hillside can be a blessing when designing a vegetable garden, especially a south-facing slope. This West Coast garden, shared by the Pacific Horticultural Society, takes advantage of the high ground on the latticed side, planting flowers that will be at eye level when someone walks down the path. Each terraced row is on its own level to get direct sunlight without being blocked by the rows in front of it. Getting supplies and water to the area could be a challenge. It is wise to consider drip irrigation and the path between vegetable rows is a must.
2. Anchor hillside garden
The soil on hillsides is usually less than ideal. Topsoil tends to wash away quickly, taking nutrients and fertility with it. It is not uncommon for hillsides, mostly rocks, to be barely covered with soil. In this case, you may need to create planting pockets and add some extra soil to establish the plant.
The gardener uses two main horses, astilbe and hosta. Both can grow in the shade of the slopes of this creek, and both are hardy enough to hold their own in the poor soil. She separated the original plants and quickly covered the entire slope within a few years.
3. Climb the hillside with stones
Stone walls are a classic way to deck and tame a hillside. Although they require a lot of work initially, once they are in place, you have a functional and attractive structure. Stone walls create planting areas wide enough to work in and around, and they look good on their own, requiring little fanfare from plants. Since stones tend to warm up early in the spring and retain heat at night, you are creating a microclimate that allows you to plant plants that would not survive in other areas of the yard.
With a thoughtful choice of plants, any hillside or slope can be a focal point in your yard.
