Vegetated retaining wall block apparatus and method
A stackable growth media filled porous fabric block-shaped container includes an internal seed carrier to facilitate the growth of various plants from within the block. A plurality of the containers may be stacked or laid side by side to create a vegetated retaining wall or a vegetated slope facing. The porous fabric block-shaped containers are filled with growth medium that encourages plant growth, while allowing proper drainage and moisture retention. The seed carrier is a degradable or porous material coated with or supporting seeds and other amendments which facilitate plant growth.
