RE: 🌋 Landslides, Kitty Cats, & Nothing Else 🐈⬛
We planted some trees last year, some from the forest, bamboo, coconuts, lost half of them. The problem is trees will take up to 10 or 15 years to provide the kind of roots that will hold the hill together. For a short-term solution we are going with bamboo and bananas, hopefully this will improve the soil because it is pure clay and almost nothing will grow. After a season or two of bamboo and bananas, perhaps the trees can start building strong roots, and eventually one day cut away the bamboo to allow the trees to take over.
I really like dwarf coconut trees, we have a few, but they are hard to find here.

You can find businesses that sell forestry trees, I think they will have a great way for you. In my place, in addition to planting coconut trees, people often create steel molds and then put stones in them and plant them on top of each other to form a high wall. This prevents the soil from being eroded.
