Does the SLOPE affect the growth of plants?

If properly maintained, growth of plants on the slopy areas mostly don't affect. One of the things to remember is about watering the plants on the slope. Don't try for overhead watering procedures. The sudden rush of water wouldn't be good if the plants are on slope. Try to provision the water on a slow manner which may help greatly in the growth of plants. Try to cover the planting spots with mulch. This can mainly help in preventing soil erosion and help with moisture retention.
