Reforestation
A quick question for you guys. I have a problem with some of my land in the DR and want to avoid any further soil erosion from tanking place. The land has a small river that runs through the bottom of a large hill. The previous owners did a good job of clearing the river of most vegetation. I want to reforest the immediate shores on both sides and some of the adjacent land. The river makes a clear divide between the hill and the plain below it. Any suggestions as to where to go for resources in the DR will be greatly appreciated since I plan on reforesting this area in May.

What kind of resource are you looking for?

A simple solution would be to replant with some native trees and plants.

Thats my idea Anthony but I would like to know more specifics like which grasses do best right in the river bed while which trees like Ceiba do best a few meters away.

I was thinking of ordering from this place. I am looking for a few trees myself for some land that I have en el campo.

I think the ones that can grow in Florida will be ok in DR

Well please make sure not to bring in any exotic fast growing trees that would become invasive in the DR and displace our endemic trees.

I wonder if there are any hybrid Dominican trees that grow fast?
