Have a look around to see what grows on the local hillsides.

ISTR some wild lupins are supposed to be good at preventing erosion.
They also have pretty flowers and self seed downhill.

Various groundcover mesembs and sedums should be OK there too.
But check that they are not designated as unwanted pest plants first!



Thanks Martin and Granity - yes i shall tell him. He has been in contact
with the other suggestions as well so at least he has something to go
on.
