I have a bank that slopes gentle, then the slopt increases.
Total
rise height is about 6 feet above about 9 feet.

I want to create a 45degree slope, covered in grass, wild flowers
etc and at the same time increase the width of the plateau at the
top of the slope.

So, can I import lots of topsoil, sow seeds and cover with
landscape fabric or similar? Or how exactly would I do this? I
want to stabilise the slope whist nature is getting going as I
imagine it will just "wash away" if I don't.
