"There was nothing else available that had the same look or performed the same way as Soil Retention Products. We have used their blocks extensively to give us an opportunity to optimize views, and to be able to replant the wall so that it looks natural."

Commercial (132 lb) block with a wall inclination of .25:1 used for walls up to 60' high, and tested for high velocity streambank use. Since the block is intended to be butted up in high velocity flows, the rails are set back to allow for a convex curve. The Verdura® 40 block is typically used in the freeboard where full plantability is required.
