I live in the mountains where landslides are common, but in 2011 we had the biggest earthquake in living memory and a portion of my compound broke away during this shake. I thought the best way to stabilize the land would be to grow some bamboos, as they are considered effective for the job.
So I got some ornamental bamboo plants from a cousin and planted it at the edge of my compound which had fallen off. The bamboos grew well and thrived in these five years to form a nice looking patch at the end of my driveway, while the roots have bound the soil and prevented the edge from further erosion.
Took some shots a few days earlier, enjoy.
