Use Riparian Planting to Restore River and Stream Banks
28.06.2023 - 11:47 / treehugger.com
Much of what we do in sustainable land management and permaculture design revolves around repairing the damage that humanity has done. How and where we are able to do so is a very important thing to consider and to talk about as we aim to move forwards into a more eco-friendly and sustainable future.
Restoring riverbanks (as well as the rivers themselves) is one key area of restoration to think about.
Whether you have a river on your own property or are looking at getting involved with a riverbank restoration scheme in the broader area where you live, here are some things that you should know about restoring riverbanks with the right riparian planting, riparian buffer zones, and potential reintroductions.
Where riverbanks have become damaged or degraded, this most often means that the normal riparian planting along the river's length has been lost or is no longer in its natural state.
So if we are looking to restore a riverbank, then one important area to look at is riparian planting. Often, the replanting of trees and other native vegetation along a waterway is the most important step in its restoration.
Allowing new trees to grow along a river, or planting them ourselves, or otherwise replacing the natural vegetation that has been lost due to deforestation, grazing pressures, etc., are important steps to take.
The correct riparian planting scheme for a particular setting can improve water quality, manage flood risk and boost biodiversity.
Trees and shrubs can also cool the water temperature and make rivers and their attendant ecosystems better able to cope with rising global temperatures. The degree of shade that will be beneficial for a river will be key and is an important thing to establish in any scheme.

Growing Hens and Chicks Plants in Gardens and Containers
Hens and chicks plants make great low-maintenance options for dry, sunny gardens. And there are so many interesting cultivars available in a range of hues, from chocolate brown to green to bright orange and yellow. The common name may be confusing until you grow them yourself and realize it makes sense. One main rosette (mama hen) will eventually produce several offsets or babies (the chicks!). Though I’ve never heard them referred to by houseleeks, their other common name, the Latin name you’ll see on plant tags for these popular succulents is Sempervivum. They are members of the stonecrop family (Crassulaceae).
