Why Erosion Control Starts Below the Surface

Healthy landscapes depend on strong root systems. TN Nursery grows many native species with powerful roots capable of binding soil, slowing water, and holding slopes together. If your yard suffers from erosion, runoff, or bank collapse, these plants are the answer—not expensive retaining walls.

TN Nursery Plants With Superhero Roots

River Birch thrives in wet areas and sends out dense root nets.
Red Osier Dogwood spreads rapidly, gripping streambanks tightly.
Buttonbush anchors marshy soil while feeding pollinators.
Sensitive Fern and Ostrich Fern form thick colonies that blanket slopes.
Soft Rush stabilizes pond edges and seasonal wet zones.
Cushion Moss and Sheet Moss hold the soil surface together, reducing splash erosion.
Ninebark and Sweetspire create shrubs that protect topsoil and slow water movement.

A Living Solution That Lasts for Decades

Unlike man-made fixes, plant-based erosion control grows stronger with time. As roots expand, soil becomes richer, firmer, and more resilient. TN Nursery natives restore natural hydrology, protect waterways, and fortify yards against storms—and they look beautiful doing it.
