Groundcover for steep slope

18 years ago

Im not sure if you can post pictures on here yet, but I have a 6 FT high about 30 foot steep slope between my house and driveway. It is grass right now, I guess they had to put something there due to possible erosion. I would like to put some bluerug junipers there instead of just grass. Right now I have to weedwack the grass due to the extreme sloping of the hill. I was wondering if I were to plant blue rug junipers there would I have to remove the grass? I assume I would have to , but if not, would the junipers beat out the grass? I worry that if I remove all the grass then the soil would erode before the junipers fill in. I wasnt really thinking about putting mulch down, just hoping it to be the junipers by themeselves. Would I have to remove the grass and put mulch down as well as planting the junipers to reduce erosion? Any help would be appreciated! thanks
