VETIVER GRASS
An affordable, straightforward, and eco-friendly remedy for erosion prevention, ground stability, managing rainwater flow, sediment capture, and toxin filtration.
A NATURAL EROSION SYSTEM
Vetiver grass stands out among plant species due to its remarkable root system, which grows vertically straight down to depths of up to 6 metres. Vetiver Grass is an unparalleled tool for land rehabilitation, as its roots form a robust underground barrier, preventing soil erosion and landslides.
Its ability to penetrate deep into the soil also makes it an ideal choice for soil conservation efforts, particularly as this plant is infertile and will only grow where man has planted it.
The grass grows to between 1.5 and 2 metres high and when planted in rows the dense foliage acts as an excellent sediment catcher, reducing and conserving rain water runoff.
